Title: Leather handle stitching patterns
Post by: Pat Ct on July 23, 2018, 12:18:10 AM
Hello all!  I'm about to wrap a longbow grip with some beaver tail and would like to see some different stitching patterns. I now there are many ways to stitch, so the more examples, the better! Thanks! Pat

Hoosier did what's called a baseball stitch.  It's my favorite for leather grip wraps.

The baseball stitch is probably the most common.

I don't think that's actually a true baseball stitch but hard to tell on my phone.  Irregardless, it's very nicely done.
