My 6th project. This one I self drafted rather than using an online pattern (although I did use a few to get an idea) and was really just meant to be a very simple one to practice stitching and get a nice super burnished edge. The flap is a tad wide but the leather is really stretchy so the band quickly accomodated it.

Looks good.

How hard is it to invert something like this for a hidden seam?

Not sure, I've yet to attempt such a thing. This was rather stretchy and relatively thin leather but I don't think I could have done it with this.

Beautiful stitch work!
