Hi Paul,
You can try a black powder gun shop or Tandy Leather.I use contact cement under both members,and a few furniture tacks along the back of the seat similar to Brooks.On the underside of the seat,front and back,there are blocks of plastic you can use small nails to help roll the leather under.If the leather is raw,I use several coats of mink oil which darkens the leather to a nice tan.
