Sewing the sole

Tonight we stitched kidskin over our shanks and then glued the second piece of fiberboard down. To stitch we first used a punch and mallet to make holes through the leather and fiberboard. Then we went back through with wax covered thread and stitched the pieces together.

My stitches weren't completely straight on the back side! Good thing this part won't show on the final shoe.
