At first, I never thought I wanted it because it was hand sewn.
In fact, I couldn't tell the difference even when I looked at it.
Honestly, I think either hand-sewn wallet or machine-sewn wallet would have been better.
That's why I didn't start this job because I admired hand sewing.
Even now, if you were to see photos side by side and ask which one would be hand-sewn, you might be confused.
Something similar happens with clothes and furniture.
I can't explain what's good about it, but for some reason there's something about it that bothers me.
On the other hand, even though I can understand the materials and functions explained to me, there are some things that I can't get my hands on for some reason.
I think this happens surprisingly often when choosing something.
I had a somewhat similar feeling when I was thinking about hand sewing.
I'm currently sewing wallets by hand because I think they're beautiful.
However, it's not about the stitch itself.
When I decided to make it by hand sewing,
Naturally, I decided to take on other steps as well.
I would be concerned if the cutting is even a little ambiguous.
I would be concerned if the leather overlaps are not aligned.
If the edges of the edges are not well-defined, it will not look beautiful no matter how carefully you sew it.
Even if the stitches are clean, it won't work.
By deciding to hand-stitch it, I was able to clearly see the standards I wanted for the entire wallet.
At first, I didn't understand the value of hand sewing.
However, as I continued to make clothes, I gradually realized something.
Ah, it wasn't the hand sewing itself that I loved.
It was the way this whole thing was arranged.
Rather than choosing hand-sewn,
I think that as a result of the adjustment, the hand stitching remained.
Even now, when I make a wallet, the first thing I look at is not the stitching.
Outline when closed.
Layered leather.
Density when picked up.
If you adjust these parts one by one, the only option left is hand sewing.
ohno lavoro in cuoio is,
I turn my sensibilities that I find beautiful into a wallet.
