Introduzione
Use this guide to repair a torn wallet lining and reattach the material to a leather wallet using hand sewing.
The lining of a wallet is what protects your personal items from scratches and damage. When this lining tears or detaches from the wallet, it creates a pocket for dirt and debris to further damage the wallet. Reattaching the lining helps prevent this and also refurbishes the look of the wallet so you're able to use your wallet for longer.
