Step 4Punch holes
Punch holes along the seam that you marked earlier.
Helpful details:
1. Having about 5 mm between each hole allows for a clean looking stitch, enough material to hold the seam, and close enough stitches to control the tension of the joint.
2. Allow enough space from the bottom stitch to the bottom of the leather to allow flex. I have a junction of about 15 mm, which allows the leather to flex around the ipod.
3. I find that laying the leather in the final drape and punching through to the other side results in a very nice, lined up seam.
