    Yeah I find it hard to translate from fabric sewing to leather. It’s a different craft really unless you work with very soft and thin leather maybe.

    I have seen pics or a video a while ago of corners done on leather that I have posted about. I just can’t find them anymore. I really have two questions: 1) do I just cut a slit or do I have to remove a “slice” there 2) how deep do I cut.

    I think I’ll have to play around with some scraps to figure out the right approach. The ones I saw had the cut stitched back together, turned and then the edge of the whole side was sewn to a strip of leather. Then the leather strip was sewn to the gusset (side and bottom of bag).
