Absolutely fantastic teaching-well communicated and well shown! I've suddenly been having trouble with wobbly and inconsistent stitch lines where I hadn't before. My issue is definitely pressure-the knot flipping is exactly what I've been seeing. I think I just got lucky with it on my first few projects haha

Love you for all time

Thank you so much sir

In your videos, is there a subtitle?🙂

Thank you for a great video. I’m just learning.

Thanks that’s my project for retirement 👍🇦🇺

Thank you for sharingus an thorough step-by-step lesson with excellent angle shots.

Cant wait to start your course!

Very use full video i ever seen bro😘😆

BEST tutorial on stitching! I searched this out due to thread twisting and making the process slow and occassionally having to undo knots. Your explanation is so clear and helpful! And I can see proper technique and waxing will make it a faster and smoother experience!

can we read with the subtitle in French?🙏🏻

Great video. Thanks. What type of glue did you use to glue the threads on the final backstitch?

Haven't read all of the comments, so I apologize if this is redundant, but well known leatherworker, Nigel Armitage has produced an app which helps you calculate more exactly what length of thread you need for a project. I believe it is free.

I can't even count how many dozens of saddle stitching tutorials I have watched, many of them repeatedly. Still I have never been happy with my stitching. So I decided to start from scratch and relearn it all. Finally happened on your video. Hands down the very best one out there. I'm only on my first project since following your instructions but I have seen remarkable improvement. Still not perfect but nicer than a lot of what I see out there. So now I know what perfection looks like and how to get there.

You meant bee wax? Source please? That looks like a candle you can paraffin wax

Watching your video very well explained nice video thank you.

Hopefully you are still responding to comments…your stitching tutorial is great, and thank you very much, but how do you handle having to utilize pliers, etc. when the components are too thick making it near impossible to push/pull the needles with just fingers?

I have to say that if you are stitching thin leathers, it is very hard to make both sides angled unless you prick the two pieces separately. It is only possible to stitch as one side straight/ angled even when casting the thread if you just prick both layers at once.

this is amazing but why the T when crossing stitches? omg, i have so much to learn.

Just learning g leather and watched other vids and just couldn't get it. This is a great, detailed and step by step explanation.

I understand why my stiches at back side is not as good as front side.. I was using T shape for needles but without rotating thread ..Thanks for your detailed presentation

Sounds like Robin Williams like a lot

#1 Thank you for taking the time to do this video. #2 Majestic moustache! Bees wax? #3 From the fact your thread broke and you used adhesive to seal your back stich, I’m assuming you’re using linen thread rather than polyester? If so, nice! While I understand that polys can be stronger, I like the idea of sewing a natural product like leather with a natural thread. I love Fil Au Chinois. I apricate you have a business to run, and food to put on the table, so this is just a polite ask. Would you please consider expanding on this video in a couple of ways? What’s your advice when it comes to thread breaking on a real project, how would you deal with that? Let’s say you want to make a wallet with some reasonably thick leather and you want both sides to have nice stitching. I’ve seen videos where a chisel is used to pierce each piece of leather separately. Would you recommend this if you were using French pricking irons? Thanks again for the great video! 🤩

This is the best tutorial I have seen to date. I am so fortunate to have seen this early in my hobby so I don't develop bad habits.

Thanks for the vid been starting to make knife sheaths but want to learn more this def helps

So beautiful😍 Do you have any specific glue that you use for MARQUETRY? The water based glue that I use for leather crafts opens up gaps in leather parts Is it a glue that I can buy in Korea?

Your voice sounds a bit like robin williams, especially at 2x speed!

Best saddle stitch video on the internet, thank you! Crystal clear instruction, camera work, and cadence, no nonsense, no self promo. Liked and subbed, great work Sir!

Very nice video, thanks

Can you please tell what leather is used inside and dimensions of this wallet?

Extraordinary. I started a leather business but always used other people to create my samples. Getting ready to learn to do it on my own. What a video. Love the waxing detail. Beautiful

I have been looking for the holy grail on how to actual break down the efficient way to saddle stitch. Having consumed hours upon hours of TH-cam videos, books galore, and hundreds of my own hours saddle stitching I never figured out, seen, read or heard such great advice as yours is here. - Humbly I thank you.

squee, that was adooorable!!!

I'm a bit late to this party but this is, without a doubt, the best video I've found on saddle stitching. You showed from multiple views with close-ups that provided a clear example of the right - and wrong - way to stitch . . . both the actions and the end result. And, you did an explanation of the way to prep the thread and needles explaining the finer points of securing the thread to the needle and waxing the thread. Some of the videos I've watched recently now make a whole lot more sense. Beyond that, you didn't even bother to edit out the blooper. Gotta love a presenter who can laugh at himself and throw in a bit of self-deprecating humor. 😀

Can you tell us about your stitching pony.I like the design and the way you hold it with your legs. Cant find anything like it.

Excellent video!

Nice to meet you, Peter!

THANK YOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!!! It all makes sense now :) Can you please share what kind of glue you use se cure the end after clipping? A lot of people use a lighter...

Fantastic video! Thank you!

Excellent video, thank you.

Ty for wasting my time

The tutorial price due to the CHF price raise is 1/3rd of the monthly wage of trainee doctor during specialisation in my country - here's to hoping you'll run a sale one day.

It’s already been said, but sir you have the best video on saddle stitching on TH-cam. Thank you for helping to understand the stitch.

Frend, thank you much!

Wad type of leather u use? Look so nice

Neat crafting. Love it.

Awesome tutorial mate. Your explanation is on point and to the point. Thank you for sharing it has helped me tremendously.

You're my inspiration. I really want to be a great leather artisan like you. Hopefully I will be able to get in person tutoring someday.

As others have said, excellent tutorial on such a foundational skill for leatherworking. I am new to leatherwork and have been experimenting with various techniques for getting good looking saddle stitching. This tutorial reinforces the basic technique I am currently using and has some great additional tips that I can incorporate to make my saddle stitches even better and more consistent. Saddle stitching is my favorite part of any project and with this explanation I will appreciate the process even more. Thank you, sir, for such an informative and clearly presented instructional video!
