A friend who wanted a leather cash pouch. The original pouch was a non leather material the size was a bit wide, so request to customize to match his needs.
Original pouch use was this design, it is non leather material (like coconut fabric material).
The original design was 25 cm x 10 cm size, it is slightly wider for Malaysia ringgit note of nomination RM50.
This a completed project and it is slightly smaller but can fit a Malaysian ringgit RM 50.00 note.
Check on thickness of original leather is about 2.3 mm

Do take note on small print to shows area which need skiving. Certain area need skiving to overcome the original thickness which make it difficult to fold and looks too bulky. Example the top flap and front facing edge, will recommend to skive as thin as possible.

TWO New Stitches to Elevate your Leathercraft!
We usually use the Saddle Stitch on every leathercraft project we make, but there are some different stitch methods you can use to open you craft up to many new shapes! In this video we make a leather pen cup using two of these stitches - the Butt Joint and the Box Joint. These stitches allow you to make 3 dimensional leathercraft projects by joining the leather at right angles or totally flat with no overlap. They take a bit of time to master, but once you've got them down they're totally worth it!
