The Stitchless Patterns Collection brings together over 15 leather projects that do not require any saddle stitching.
The digital download includes PDF leather patterns for three wallets, a sling bag, a notebook cover, couple of trays, three curtain tiebacks, few keychains and wraps including the Cigar Rest keychain, and a bunch of small accessories - bracelet, bookmark, wine glass tags & coasters.
The no-sew templates come with step-by-step assembly instructions including in-progress pictures to guide you through the build. Put away the thread and needles and have fun making the Stitchless Patterns Collection! :)
Happy crafting,
