I did a video about stitching recently which I hope was helpful but some people having been saying to me that they can only make the stitch neat on one side. In this quick video I show an updated method which also includes a cast over type of movement which may help to neaten up the back side.
Ian, Thanks so much for all your videos. Not only are you a craftsman, you are also a very good teacher. Thanks again
The great thing about running a youtube channel, is the fact that its yours and you can upload a video whenever you want! Your work is great, videos are awesome, and the information you provide is priceless! Thank you so much for your time and effort Ian, I hope things go smoother for you at work!
This video improved my stitching immensely, thank you!
Thanks Ian, This is exactly what I have been struggling with. Perfect timing for me . You're a great teacher and an excellent inspiration.
Best video I've ever seen on stitching. By the way, I'm in Virginia, U.S., and I can understand your dialogue perfectly (kind of nice on the ears, actually).
I am replying because I said the exact same thing!! So well explained and I dont have to wonder how he does it at all!
Michael Wolff Britcoms 🤣 Never heard that one before. I’m Scottish and would recommend Still Game. I would also suggest you try out Father Ted (a hilarious Irish show about Catholic priests living in an island community) if you haven’t already. I’m still laughing at it over 20 years later 😂
Let’s see how well you do with accents in those shows 😂😂
I am a massive still game fan 😆
Ian Atkinson it’s absolutely great. Just finished it again during the quarantine. I’m also a huge Ian Atkinson fan. I’ve watched so many leather craft videos these last two weeks.
Do you do requests? 🤣 You couldn’t do a wee video on the process of buying leather or hides etc? It’s rather confusing for a guy like me who is starting out. The pricing is confusing and some places don’t even show prices or how to gauge how much hides might cost
You're the man Ian, I swear other people making these videos are doing it in riddles, almost like they're trying to keep it a secrete. Thanks so much for showing me the proper way.
I’ve noticed the same thing, there are so many tutorial videos but they obscure the details and gloss over very important stuff.
Deep breaths, Ian. You're doing great. I love listening to your voice - even when the stress is clearly getting to you. You rock!
You explain things better than anyone i have ever heard. Thank you for sharing your experience and knowledge.
This is a great video, I have watched several others and this one explains it so clearly I am going to try it myself, whenever I have handstitched anything like this I have done a running stitch from one end to the other and then run back to the beginning filling in the spaces which looks OK,
but I can now see that this method actualy ties the pieces together on every stitch like a knot where the running stitch is just loose, Thank you i'm subbed.
Thank you Ian. I just ordered the basic sewing kit (awl, needles, thread, overstitch wheel and stitch groover) from Springfield Leather Co. along with five pounds of veg tan remnants so that I can teach myself how to saddlestitch. Because of the high quality of yours and Nigel's video instruction, I am confident that I can do it.
This is the best tutorial on stitching I've seen. Thank you for taking time out of your busy schedule and helping us out.
This is the clearest demonstration I've seen yet. And I've watched every saddle stitch video on youtube. You made the loop over on the back side perfectly clear, thank you!
Finallyyyyyyyy got it! The direction of the pull to create tension really helps in making the stitch more diagonal Thanks a lot for this video
Incredibly well explained... I think this is the clearest vídeo that I have ever seen about saddle stitching, and I am sure that it will improve a lot my stitches. Thank you very much for your time and effort. We really appreciate it! :-)
I need to thank you so much for this tutorial. It breaks my barrier on saddle stitching, never got it slanted on both sides and your teaching is clear and concise. I did it!!! Thanks so much! Greetings from Brazil.
Thank you for being so generous with your time and expertise! I'm from Utah in the U.S.! and I love your videos!
My stitching just improved 100x better after watching this video. Now the front and back sides are uniform. 😍😍 Thanks Ian.
Thanks, Ian!! Now I got the right steps to saddle stitch.Now I must practice, Ian!!!

Ha! I could have guessed for hours but any sort of loop wouldn't cross my mind. Thank you for solving this for me!
My front stitch line looks impeccable, but the back stitch is literally a perfectly straight line. I was getting frustrated but it's good to hear others experience the same issue. Excited to try this method later today. Will update.
I've watched dozens of these videos from different people, just to see if I pick up any new tips. I've seen a few really good tutorials but yours is the easiest to follow because of you taking the time repeating it slowly and showing from both sides. Well done!
Btw, I hope work eased up for you.
Ian, I sincerely hope the stressful day job situation has calmed down, so you can spend more time on your leatherwork. I thoroughly enjoyed this very helpful video, gracias 🙏🏼
I'm from Brazil btw, have some hard time trying to understand this british accent but you've made it so clear, tnx
Great video, thanks! This is the first time I've got a good look at casting in a saddle stitch
I always learn something new each time I watch one of your videos. Thank you so much for taking the time to do these.
Thank you for taking the time to make another helpful video Ian.
Thank you for teaching us the craft. I am just learning and I feel like you really show me in way I can understand. thanks again
Now, I know how to do the saddle stitch properly, thanks for making this video.
this technique really works great, it neatened up my stitches and now looks professional. Thanks Ian!!!!!
Best video showing how to do the stitching, very useful for beginner!👍👍👍
Thanks Ian! This solved my issue with sloppy looking stitches on the back! You're the best and I so appreciate your videos- they've been extremely helpful to me as a novice leatherworker and you are my go to guy!
Great video. Can't say "thank you" enough. I've learned so many tips and tricks from your videos.
Thank you for this excellent video! I've started to make my own leather stuff, but was not happy with my stitching. This will help a lot to make it look better! Thanks!
Thanks, this video has been a great help and explained why my first project didn't turn out as expected. It was the loop at the back I wasn't getting right. Front to back and through the loop. I'll remember that.
Thank you Thank you Ian, it really will help me get the front and back looking like they are supposed to. The back of my stitching was looking straight instead of looking slanted like I like it to be. Off to stitch!!
Waouh I have been looking for this video, this is the only one where all details are well explained. Thank you so much!
if you look at the newest stitching video I did it goes into much more detail than this
YES!!!!Finally, i got a hints to figure out my stitching problem. Previously, i never care about the stitching step. That why my stitching always got a different direction at the same line. Thank you for your video. Hopefully, you can shoot more tutorial of basic hints. Can you share your experience about select the Wax line(150D ,200D,300D etc)
Thank you Ian. Good video and good to put another stitch style in the inventory. I will practice it and figure out if I will use it. Have several I use now and mostly as long as the front looks good and has a nice set to it I can live with a straight back side stitch...
Good explanation. You make it look easy. Thanks.
Great tips Ian. Gotta say, your vids have helped me tremendously with constructing small leather accessories. Cheers from NYC!!
Very Nice young man. I do take a lot of interest, of late, in your very informative clips. I hope to make my own friction sheath in the summer for a very old Normark Supersweed lock knife that I have had since the 80's. The original Whitby knives sheath is failing in the belt loop so I need to replace it. I will use your clips for help & pointers where I need to. The stitching is certainly one for anyone to have a look at. Keep it up & Many Thanks
such an informative vid... another incorporation bit to enhance my crafting technique... tysmfs :)
Good to see you again. Love your work and thank you for the videos. Much appreciated.
Cool. I've been doing it the way Nigel shows in his video. I will have to try this way too. Thanks for the info!
Thank you for taking the time to do this...
thank you so much! i have had trouble with untidy stitches. i will try this once i get the chance to.
Thank you Ian, great job as always.
Another clear and concise video. Thank you.
Thank you for the videos. You are obviously talented. When my finances improve I will donate, and possibly purchase some of your products. This Yank appreciates the tutorial videos. God bless.
A very useful tutorial, keeping doing what you've doing .
Excellent stitching, and excellent video and explanation. Thanks.
Thaks, man. Your videos are huge inspiration!
This video really help me out. Thank you. Greetings from Malaysia.
Thank you! I was having this very issue, and was looking for a video just like this. Great explanation -very helpful.
Much appreciated.
Excellent vidéo Ian thanks for your help and the time you take to do it.
Thanks so much! This was really helpful!
As always excellent video. Of course I would expect that from an Englishman lol. You do a rather wonderful job at explaining in detail how to do these things. In a couple of your videos you seem to be worried about the amount of time you’re using in that video. You shouldn’t worry about it mate. Those of us who watch your videos would rather you spend 2 hours or more lol than for you to leave something out or feel hurried. We all love your videos. I have to say if not for you I wouldn’t be attempting to do a bit of leatherwork myself. So hats off to you and cheers
Thank you for taking the time to show us
Whenever we are watching your awesome videos my finance says you are soo cuuute xD
Yea, and btw thank you so much for doing these videos, I am definitely going to donate as I haven't seen a better teacher out there.
Thank you Ian! You’re an amazing teacher! Thank you for this video, it helped me tremendously! Cheers!
Отличное видео, все очень понятно, наглядно, доступно для повторения. Спасибо за проделанную работу.
Great tutorial, thank you very much!
I can understand you quite well which I can't always say about US people who tend to speak as if they were eating their socks at the same time.
You speak quite accentuated, hence with a northern (?) accent which is pleasant to listen to.
Great illustration
Love you videos. Eagerly looking forward to your next pattern and work along video.
Great tutorials Ian ! I'm just beginning so it's all a massive learning curve at the moment. Keep em coming ,
Regards,
Andy (a fellow Leeds man)
Thanks for the tips, I didn't know this was supposed to be a locking stitch.
Excellent, thanks for that, it was very helpful.
Thanks Ian, always useful info!
Hey Ian, much better than the other video on stitching, you made. Now I can clearly see what you are doing. Thanks for that! Btw.. meanwhile I ordered the "Art of Hand Sewing Leather" book. But it's still on its way to me. Happy holidays to you and your loved ones.
Done beautifully 😍 you’re amazing.
Thank you, that was a big help! Keep up the great work you're doing.
Excellent. Thank you
Thanks Ian well demonstrated & helpful

Great demo. Very well done! Thanks!
Thanks for this video. Ondrej Czech Republic
Excellent. Thank you.....
Excellent video
Ah, I wasn't crossing the needle !!! Thank you friend
Thanks a lot for this, it made a huge difference. It looks really good on the back, but maybe a bit less zig-zag-y on the front.
Thank you! This really helps! :)
what a beautiful secure stitching
I was wondering if you found it necessary to coat your pricking iron or needles with anything, like beeswax etc, to make it easier to get the iron out or pull needles through the holes? Or am I doing something wrong?
Thanks!
Peter
