Alyssa Leather Rocker Cross Cruff 1

I am having problems with some leather cuffs. I have attached a sterling silver cross to a leather cuff using a thick thread, but after wearing this, my customer complained of it coming loose.

I’m having problems with rivets tearing the leather when I hammer them. I need a good way to secure the metal to the leather.

Any suggestions?
