I did the post on French edge binding, so here's another option to add a bit of detail to your bags or pouches. While pretty straightforward, there's a couple of little tricks that I've found work for me. As a rule, and depending on hide thickness, I find that 7/8" is about my standard for edge binding width when using thin goat or calf hide, so I simply ad the desired length of fringe to that width for fringed binding. In this case, I wanted about 3/8" of fringe, so I cut strips 1-1/4" wide. You'll want to leave that extra width on the front side of the piece being bound, ensuring that you have plenty of material to grab on the backside when punching your holes for stitching. Here are a few photos of a pouch I'm working on where I'll fringe bind the interior pocket, front panel, and top edge.
