My Missus has agreed to let me us her sewing machine to sew some leather working stuff. It is really thin leather which I am making a bag with. What if any changes do I need to make to her machine?

they should do the jobbie aye?
Those are the sort I use in mine for heavy sewing so you should be fine
Sorry to bring up an old thread, but a quick question..... Now I have the needles I foolishly thought they would use the thread I use when hand sewing..... It's too thick for the needle holes..... Doh
What thread should I be using?
Orric
In my old singer, I'm using a waxed linen shoe thread with Singer leather needles. Its about the same thickness as button thread. Its the biggest stuff I can get to work with mine. Is the thread seperating or snapping as it passes through the eye?
