For quite some time now, I wanted to make a tool holster & belt for my maker friend Ellen @Crafts With Ellen She works with all kind of material but she's also a very talented seamstress. I thought that a leather tool belt for her sewing tools would help her whilst she works on a project. So here it is.
I used 2.5mm/6oz vegetable tanned leather for the front and back and 2mm/5oz veg tan leather for the inner layers and the pouches. I cut all the pieces, punched all the holes for rivets and snaps, beveled all the edges and light sanded them as well. Then I wet the leather to put a groove around all the parts, 3mm from the edge. Once the leather was fully dry, I dyed all the parts black, applied two coats of neatsfoot oil and rubbed all the parts with a clean cotton rag and some Eco-Flo super shene.
Once all the parts were fully prepared, I was able to stitch the bottom of the pouches and the parts together and assemble them using 8mm snaps and rivets. I also used two 28mm swivel snaps, two 20mm D rings, a 20mm buckle and a 30mm belt buckle.
I really enjoyed creating the piece and making the pattern available for you. You can find it on my website: https://www.theredsmith.com/product-page/leather-tool-holster-belt-pattern-tutorial-video
