Leather pouch attachment

I always used the seatbelt sling style of attachement because whenever i have tried just a knot the leather always teared right away maybe I dont use the right knot so do you know how to make a knot that dont put too much strain on the leather

It's the holiday season, so a lot of people are busy. But all I do is the same whip stitching as the seat belt slings as well.  BUT I reinforce with clear crazy glue.

I would think the leather itself might be the culprit. Some leather is just too weak to be used for a sling. If your into trying new things (boy that's a loaded statement), try an apache sling. It takes a little longer to make but they work great and with the right leather and whipping they last forever. Almost.  Wink
