Ermine Street Guard Roman display at the Countryside Centre, Loggerheads Country Park. Organised for National Archaeology Day 19 July 2003. Detail of watertight seams on exterior side of leather tent. This example is the reinforced or welt seam. First the two pieces are laid grain (smooth) sides together and a narrow strip of leather called a welt is laid along the edge, projecting beyond it. All three layers are sewn together with a 2-needle stitch. Then the outer layer is turned up and the free edge of the welt is sewn to the outer layer's flesh side with tunnel stitches (meaning that the needle passes into and back out of the thickness of the leather without ever coming through to the outer grain side. Either a whip stitch or a running stitch may be used to secure the welt. When properly done there are no holes through the leather, and water runs off without getting into the seam. No stiching visible on outside/exterior. The leather is then treated with oil to stop water absorbtion. 19 July 2003
