After the leather is dry, I tooled in my "MT4Runner" logo.


Drilled 1/16" holes with a cordless drill and stitched with waxed nylon thread with a tapestry needle.

Cut them out and then re-wet the leather at the stitching. I used the bottom of a pub glass to press the stitching down into the leather so it lays flatter. Also burnished all the edges


Finished with leather dye:
