Stitching the parts together This is the final part of the construction process series. This is where all the parts are stitched together. The lower leather part with the upper parts. The vamp and the back leather part. For this task start by threading the needle. This needle is a different kind. They are called Osborne Braiding Needles at DICTUM ( https://www.dictum.com/en/sewing-tools-materials-bbc/osborne-braiding-needles-708419 ) and threading them is easier than using the saddle-maker's needles. They hold two "teeth" that I suppose they hold the thread in there. I am not sure if I did it right but for the whole project it did hold the thread pretty nicely without disengaging the thread at any time. I first passed the thread in the V shape lamina passing both teeth and then the short part of the thread again in the V shape lamina passing only the first tooth and that's it. This needle does not hold a sharp/pointy edge and is perfect for this stitching pur
Stitching the Back Leather Part Adding some seams to the upper part of the back leather part is a necessary process as this part comes in contact with the trousers probably and will need more support than only the cement glue. Starting here is to measure the distance from the edge done on the other seams of the shoe (for me as I have already constructed it). If this is your first pair of shoe you can have a relative distance from the upper edge of about 3-6mm. I did measure the previous shoe using the dividers and mark that distance on the newly build back part. Refer to the analogous video added at the end of this post to see the process. Use the pricking/marking tool to mark the stitch distance evenly. I used the wheel which makes the most sparse markings. You can decide which ones you like the most. Sparse stitches or dense ones. From here onwards use the Stitching Pony to clamp this piece of combined leather, prepare your thread (by cutting it to the appropriate length and w
