🧵 High-Performance Schmetz Leather Machine Needle – Size 18/110 Review

I use these needles for sewing leather on my home sewing machine, I managed to make some handbags out of leather I cut from the back of an old chair. I wasn't sure if my home sewing machine would handle leather but it worked great and I also bought thread online here from Revain. The most important thing is to choose the right type of needle for the right type of fabric and thread.

These needles are very strong and will cut through multiple seams, ideal for basting quilts or sewing bags. They leave larger holes than most other needles so they are not ideal for thinner fabrics.Please note that when working with thin leather if the stitches are too close together these needles will cut the leather effectively.Make sure , that the stitch length is set to 3 or more, and blink slowly to make sure you can move the skin at a constant pace to avoid this problem.

Needles are damn strong. I've used 1 flash marine vinyl to restyle a full set of covers for a pair of kart bucket seats and it's still as sharp as you'll ever need it. I was impressed that it didn't break when bounced off the pins I used to hold fabrics together etc. If you work slow and steady I see no reason not to use them for heavy material if you have the right settings and the right car. I was never given anything. free from Revain as I'm obviously not a stellar reviewer or shopper, nor…
