My fist DIY post - Leather Pouch

Check out the video

HOW TO MAKE A LEATHER POUCH WITHOUT THE LEATHER CRAFT TOOLS
This is an alternative way to sew a leather pouch without fancy craft tools. It's more work but worth saving you the money if you don't plan to work on leather often.

                  Materials you will need which are the basic items you can find in your garage                
I am replacing the hole punch and the spacing tools with a nail, ruler and hammer

Measure the material
FYI I am making a pouch for my flint striker

Cut your leather piece


Apply glue to side and bottom edges to the inside of your piece of leather


Fold your leather in half with the outside facing in and pin it closed with some clips. Allow 2 mins for glue to dry

                                Using a ruler to mark up 1/4″ spacing along the side and bottom of the pouch.

                                                   Using the nail and hammer to punch holes


Thread your needle





Sew through the holes and you are done
