Embroidery on leather
Has anyone ever embroidered on leather caps? As well as leather in general. I have a customer that wants me to do some leather items for him.
I'm a bit nervous, as leather is expensive, and I'm afraid to ruin anything, but I have an old leather jacket that I don't care about that I was going to practice on, but where do I start? What needles? Stabilizer? etc.
I have a set of Magnetic might hoops, and I'm going to use those as to not rise tearing the leather with traditional hooping, but how the heck do I hoop a leather cap without tearing it?
I'd appreciate anyone's advice.
Thanks
