Until you try the double-sided carpet tape, don't be sure it's not exactly what you are looking for. I've used it for the purpose  you wish to use it.  It works well if firm pressure is applied to the leather-tape-leather sandwich immediately after they are stuck together

Try it...bet you'll like it!.
