Learning how to hand stitch leather using the traditional saddle stitching method can be very rewarding. Over the years of doing leatherwork there were definitely things that would have improved my own learning curve. In this saddle stitching tutorial video I try to explain some of the how to’s of hand stitching while saddle stitching one of my favorite leather card wallet designs.
I have also made a PDF pattern available of this design covered in the video. Purchasing the pattern helps me greatly and I do appreciate your support.

I swear, I've looked at a zillion videos on how to hand stitch and yours is the ONLY one that shows how to set up the thread in the needle. Thank you so much.
So glad the video was helpful for you, regards Terrick
This is the best tutorial on saddle stitching on RUclips. Thank you
Absolute perfect saddle stitch teaching
0:45 god damn, there’s more emotion in these few seconds than most movies could ever hope for
they were some really special items to make.
I thought I was the only one that felt that. You could see the memories in his eyes and the emotion in his face.
Great video.
That was my thought immediately as well. You could almost see the memories and feel the exact emotions at that time in just those few fleeting seconds with the person reacting suddenly with no care or awareness of what is going on around them. A moment when time stands still. Priceless moments for sure that can only be duplicated by those that have experienced the same or similar special moments. I can say for myself, I never tire from watching these events unfold right before my eyes. It is one of the very few things that give me a little hope for humanity.
Dang beat me to it. I felt that emotion bro.
very good explenation. Best I have seen till now. Keep on the good work.
Incredible workmanship and thank you so much for the tutorial!
You can tell the bag you made when she went into labor for Noah meant alot to you as well and brought back memories
This is so generous of you. Thank you! I learned a lot. I will watch it again.
I learned leatherer by watching your videos. I already have a few handicrafts. Thank you for that.
thank you for teaching how to sew leather bags at home using your hands properly. I really want to learn how to sew leather. I am very happy that you are teaching
Something to note for beginners. He is using a pricking iron on a granite slab. Because these tools do NOT go through the leather (the saddlers awl is what pierces the leather except on thin leather) he runs no risk of damaging his pricking iron. If you use a stitching chisel, NEVER use it on granite. Always have a poly board and a thick piece of scrap tooling leather under the project so you never blunt the chisel accidentally.
By far the best hand stitch video I have seen for leather!!! Thanks a mill
Nice and clear explanation. Awesome. Thank you.
I actually love the hand craft and always watch multi thing about it in RUclips , but your way is awesome to learn it by your details we never notice it with our instructions ,, thank you for your help
I loved your indication, instructions and the whole of the video.many thanks.
This great demonstration has really inspired me to try my first leather stitching project. Thanks!
I learned more from you in the very first vid than 20 or more vids from other peps. They are all good craftsmen but you explain in detail. Thanks for the lesson.
one of the best and most useful instructions on leather stitching I've seen. Excellent work and style. Thanks
Love the clamps your using to hold the leather while you sew it!
I’ve watched many stitching videos. Your video was the best I’ve see. Now a subscriber! Thanks for doing this!
This is a great saddle stitching video. You highlighted the subtle parts like pulling the first thread towards you, the casting on the back side, and angling the pull.... that all makes great, consistent stitching! Thanks!

Great job describing everything, your very detailed and you obviously care a great deal for your craft ! Thank you for this tutorial! It was very helpful also loving the tips and technique tricks!
Thanks Terrick. I've just started leather working, about four months ago. The stitching is really the area that I want to improve in my work. It seems to me to be so important to get it neat, tidy and even. I'll try your methods on the next piece I make. Also, I loved the intro with you talking about those deeply personal memories and emotions you put into your early works.
Thank you so much, you are the best teacher
Amazing how some people as so talented...............................
I 'm sure they work very hard to achieve their status........GREAT WORK..........
Thank you so much! Your description of casting the stitch was very clear and helped me to finally understand how to do it correctly.
The way you looked at that bag you gave to your wife before she gave birth to your son, I felt that. This was a fantastic video and very useful thank you!

I've just purchased your wallet pattern, and look forward to getting my stitches to a professional level. Thank you so much for sharing these amazing tools & tips in your tutorial. Your memories included are a great reminder why Craftsmanship is so important and under valued by too many.
I learned so much from watching just one video. Thank you!
Thanks for the demo, I love watching skilled craftsmen and craftswomen.
you are the master of leather craftmanship
so impressed with the fine stitching
This is the first video i watched to learn saddle stitching and it was great.
0:51 You can see this bag really means something to him. Lovely to see something like that.
Jer 1967 - 👍Exactly what I said and felt too. I had to reply it. It was beautiful to see.💞
I too was struck with the emotion of that moment.
👍😍🤗Beautiful moment. Beautiful bag. That bag should be named The Noah Bag. It’ll be a family heirloom. Hopefully, his son Noah will cherish it when he grows up and will pass it on to his own first born child and so on as a family tradition. 💝
Such a good video, thank you. So clear, patient and informative, beautiful work.
I've been watching a lot of leather-working channels since getting interested in it recently, this is the first episode of yours I have watched and I can say I have learned more in four minutes on your channel then any of the other ones. Thanks.
You're so gifted, it's very neat.
You are an artists. Thanks for all the tips!
So crafty! Amazing.
Truely a master of the craft! Thanks for sharing.
The vest video I have seen so far in stitching! Amazing work!!
You’re an amazing craftsman. Excellent work!
This is a terrific video by a master craftsman. Thank you for taking the time to make it.
This is one of my favorite stitching videos blessed with loads of wisdom. I've seen this at least 4 times (rewinds notwithstanding), and always pick up a new insight with each view. Follow you on IG as well. Thank you and God bless.
Thank you for your kind comment, my wife and I make the videos so we appreciate your complement. Terrick
I've watched a lot of leather work vids. You are one of the best. I don't think you could do anything better. Your stuff looks like it would last 100s of years. I can only image the things you have made for yourself. Loved your intro where you showed the things you made your wife, I can only imagine the quality of material and care put into those.
Its obvious you are an accomplished craftsman. Thank you for your contribution.
This was a great video - really clear - helpful tips. Am just getting started in leatherwork myself - thanks so much!
Thank you very much for sharing your skills and tips ! Great video, very much appreciated
Hi, I always love watching this on your show, cheers, Michael.
There is only one word - MASTERPIECE
Old world craftsmanship and an excellent tutorial. Thank you
I just loved watching you work. I work with wood and steel but I’ve never tried to make anything from leather… You give me inspiration
you are the first person i've seen explaining how to not catch a thread. thank you SO much!
Thank you for your excellent explanation and going into all the fine details. Very helpful and instructive.
Very clear detailed, understandable instructions. Thank you
Another great video. Thank you for taking the time to teach us.
Very nice work! Stitching is spot on I hand stitch every thing think it gives a more hand made feel thanks for posting
Thanks very much mate....very helpful and really appreciated!
One ,if not the best educational videos on hand stitching! You are truly a master craftsman! Kudos!
One of the best Videos on You Tube describing how to Saddle Stitch! Thanks so much!
Thanks, glad it was helpful
I will have watch more, much I understand yet not clear on thread type and needles. When you waxed the stitching thread, it appeared the needle was split. Growing up on a farm, I rode a paint but fixed the saddle, I had to. The smell of leather, fresh cut wood are something you never forget. You did an awesome job of showing certain techniques, for that I thank you. I will have to watch more as I subscribed.
I was the oldest and grew 6 inches at age 11. It was brutal. At 7, I helped other farmers to earn money. No allowance on the family My eye caught gas powered lawnmowers & they gladly gave them to me, even a ride home with a bicycle I fix for free. Soon, $1 per yard was faster as I got one mower working. Later, $15 got a step-thru motorcycle running. It was metric and bought same, but cheap. Those metric tools had me fixing Opel’s, my friends own mother had me fix her Datsun PU. Sanding spokes off model “T” and varnishing then for $8 each. The smell of cut hay, from 10 miles away mad me sick. Spent 40+ years in dealerships and as worn joints & fusions (3 at different times/5 total joints/and still burns)
I have some of the tools and two hole punch forks. I need a good scyving knife. My problem is elbows, they slow me down bad. I have buckets from a newer truck I have cut, welded and modified. They are going into my 44 year old truck, I’ve fixed over 7 years. Inside; Using a leather that 1.3 mm thick, I am torn between stitching or machine. Companies sell leather seat covers with lace & machine stitching. Bolsters stand up longer with lace in cross-hatch pattern. I will be watching videos on your channel to see subjects to overcome, learn and do!

Very good quality control points....thank you!
Just subscribed. Its Awesome to see that GREAT artisans still exist, and are making EXCELLENT quality items!!!! Your attention to detail is refreshing and amazing! ! ! The world needs more people like YOU ; people who actually care about the quality of their work.

Thank you, thank you! It took me a while to cruise through the video-garbage of people with dollar-store sewing kits, etc., to find your exceptional instructions. You made my night of hand-stitching fulfilling and easy. Cheers!
Thank you for the motivating comment Rebecca, we so glad it was helpful for you.
Finally found a video that explains this well. Thanks for taking the time and as someone who also happens to be married to my camerawoman (when she can and I am not self-filming out of necessity), I thought your wife's camera work was just fine. Beautiful stitching clam, also.
Thanks for your message. This was one of Charlenes 1st few videos so Im still really proud of how well she did with it.
