The final project of this class is to make your own leather slim wallet by creating a template from scratch.

For this project you will need:

Your preferred type of leather. In this case I’ll be using 100% Shell Cordovan.
A pair of scissors
An x-acto knife
A wing divider or edge creaser
A scratch awl
An edge beveler
Sandpaper. 220 grit will work just fine.
Leather glue.
A diamond chisel
A wooden edge burnisher
Burnishing gum
A small piece of canvas.
A poly-block
A poly-mallet
And a pair of stitching needles with your preferred kind of thread for hand stitching.

In a previous class I've shown you how to make a handmade leather wallet and included techniques such as saddle stitching and edge burnishing. You can watch that class to learn more on handcrafting leather or as a complement to the methods learnt in this class!

When you finish your wallet make sure to share it in the projects section and if you have any doubts or comments, please do not hesitate to let me know. I’ll be more than happy to help you.
