Back when I was doing Viking stuff, there were some modifications I made to gloves (adding extra leather to make my hands hurt less when they get whacked by swords[1]), and some shoes that I got halfway through making. Both of those included a fair amount of sewing, and neither fit into the categories above.
It's a bit different with leather, as you have to punch all your holes before getting the needle and twine out.
[1] Blunt, of course, and wielded with some care, but solid iron, chunky and quite heavy. None of this silly rapier or epee nonsense.
