Putting felt on zebra hide

Submitted by ward69 on 08/27/2003. ( ) 198.208.6.35

I have purchased a tanned zebra hide and would like to felt the piece.Does this get sewn to edge or glued to the entire back. If it is sewn how do you hide [or do you hide] the stiching. All I have is a standard sewing machine!? Hand sewing would awfully difficult. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Saves a lot of heartaches. The hide needs to be bound with a machine. The stitches won't be hidden, but at least they'll be done professionally with a machine.
