Hello Everybody! I stuggle, and I do mean struggle, with placing stitching holes when using patterns that don't have them. Don't even get me started when it comes to gussets! GEESH! I have ruined or abandoned more projects than I would care to admit. What techniques do you guys use to determine placement and spacing of stitching holes?

I would agree with others here in that this is a fairly complicated question with no one-size-fits-all answer. The "size" of the project needs to be taken into consideration as well as the "look" that you're going after. The larger the project, the wider the spacing you can have. For the distance away from the edge, my "general" rule of thumb is that it is about the same as the thickness of the leather.
