What is a Handheld Leather Stitcher?
2. Stitch Control Walking foot machines allow for better control over stitch length and tension, which is vital when working with leather. Adjusting these parameters correctly ensures that the stitches hold the leather pieces together securely without damaging the material.
Proper tension is essential when sewing leather. Before starting, spend some time testing your machine’s tension settings on scrap leather pieces. A balanced tension will yield clean and even stitches. It is also advisable to use a longer stitch length (around 3.5 to 4 mm) when sewing leather to prevent the material from perforating too much, which can weaken its structure.
What is a Five Thread Overlock Machine?
- The walking foot, on the other hand, is what sets this machine apart from its counterparts. Unlike a standard sewing machine where the fabric is moved by the feed dogs, a walking foot sewing machine has an additional foot that moves up and down, mimicking the action of the feed dogs. This ensures that the top layer of the fabric moves at the same pace as the bottom, preventing any slipping or bunching - a common issue in fabrics with different weights or layers.
