Zune (or any mp3-player) Leather pouch with branding

Step 2Prepare the leather pouch

Prepare the leather pouch
First place the leather on a wooden board.
Place the player on the leather and wrap the leather around it.
Use 2 nails to fix the overlapping leather close to the player to the wooden board.
Now this will look as if the seam will later be at the lower edge of the player. You can fix this once the side is sewed. Just move the pouch (bottom not sewed yet) around the player until the seam is in the middle of the players thickness.
Make sure you have a tight fit of the player in the leather wrap you just created.
Be careful not to hit the player with the hammer ;-)
The two nails will give you a nice imaginary line so you know where to put the stitches.
Spacing is up to you, but I would recommend not to make them too wide as this will end up in waves if you look at the pouch from the side.
(I don't know where the two boxes in the image went in the preview. While editing, the boxes are here. The first nail goes in the upper right corner and the second nail is the hole where the last straight stitch at the side goes to the back of the pouch. Sorry for the inconvenience, but in the editor, it looks better with the squares in the picture)
