Remembering Jay

Posted on March 5, 2018 by customboots

My old mentor Jay Griffith told me that a good top stitcher should be able to put one row on a set of boot tops (4 panels) every 30 minutes. This is a 4 row stitch design; I started it at 5pm and I finished all 4 rows on all 4 panels at 6:30pm.
