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
