Perhaps, most of us wonder why I make a coin purse if I am involved in car upholstery. In fact these small projects are not so easy. I consider the making of small items as part of our training. It would be of great help some day if we need to customize a car seat, door panel, etc.
I think the making of the hem is the most interesting part of the video. The coin purse edge is irregular and at the time of gluing it down the hem edge is misaligned. That is why I use the method of trimming the leather edge after the whole sewing close to the line of stitches.
If this edge all around would not be irregular then I would have folded the hem and sewed it directly.
If you do not have a leather skiving machine you could use thinner leathers, such as goat, pig or lamb leather.
I hope you find this video helpful!
