A reliable tool for repairs and heavy-duty hand sewing, the Speedy Stitcher® Sewing Awl is built to handle tough materials like leather, canvas, and vinyl. Used by both professionals and DIYers, it’s a go-to for leather crafters, sailors, outdoor enthusiasts, and others who need a durable, easy-to-use sewing solution for gear and equipment.
This all-in-one tool includes high-tensile waxed polyester thread and custom-made diamond point needles, and is designed to create a tight lock stitch—the same kind of stitch you’d get from a sewing machine. With a little practice, it sews cleanly and consistently.
Made in the USA, the basic kit includes the Speedy Stitcher® Sewing Awl, one straight and one curved needle, a built-in bobbin wound with 14 yards of waxed thread, and full instructions.
