I will have to give the steaming a try, I work doing upholstery so Monday I will go into work an steam it an use a roller on it as I've already tried to fix it at home without steam because I didn't want it to separate from the leather worse case if it comes loose I will put a different thickness linen on because it's thin and fraying a little on the edges an I don't want to put heat on it an make it hard or sharp.
