Strap Edge Guide- Template Set (3)
Description
A precision tool for clean, consistent strap finishes.
Wristlet Straps & Shoulder Straps
This template helps you create balanced, symmetrical strap ends that fold smoothly and reduce bulk before stitching. The Strap Edge Guide Template™ is designed for sewists who want to refine their strap construction and achieve a more polished finish.
Why This Template Exists
Many sewists leave strap ends raw or rely on metal strap tips to create a finished look. While both options work, they can limit the aesthetic of your design or add extra cost and bulk.
The Strap Edge Guide Template™ offers another approach.
This template creates shaped cuts that allow the strap to fold into itself cleanly, producing a smooth, finished end that can be stitched closed.
No exposed raw edges and no additional hardware needed.
It’s a small adjustment that makes a noticeable difference in the final result.
