Leather 'N Lace Wrist Cuff

A quick and easy steampunk accesory

https://www.cutoutandkeep.net/projects/leather-n-lace-wrist-cuff • Posted by A.nonny.mouse

This was a pretty quick project, about an hour. The hardest and longest part was getting the needle to go through the leather, as mine was pretty thick. I just took a long strip of scrap leather and cut it long enough to wrap around my wrist twice. One end is 3 inches wide, and the other is only 1 1/4 inches, and the edges were cut jagged. I used doubled up embroidery thread to sew a whip stitch along one edge, and to sew on the button and a thin strip of suede, and the ribbon was secured underneath. The suede strip is on the thinner end of the cuff, and the button about in the middle. I wrap the suede around the button to fasten the cuff around my wrist.
