If you reverse before the hook has caught the loop, it will at the minimum skip a stitch. For many machines, the needle should rise 1/4" or so before you reverse. (Same when turning sharp corners.)

@rac1812 Moved your post to leather sewing machines. If your material is too thin and the thread is too thick, you can't hide the knots in the material regardless of what you do with your tension settings.

Went to the local Tandy a couple weeks ago to get the double shoulder vegtan at this sale price. None in stock, didn't arrive, you can order it on the web (and pay shipping). I asked about them ordering it to pick up in the store. Sure we can do that, you pay the shipping though anyhow. Not buying that! I've bought from Tandy here since 1961, through several managers and locations. Finding I have less interest in purchasing from Tandy with all the changes in the past5 years or so.

Take a look through this thread, You might find some help here. If not, there are lots more posts in the forum 'sewing leather'.

I'm no expert with sewing machines so take this with a grain of salt. The holes look too large, so maybe try a smaller needle size. Also looks like you could use a little more tension on the top and bottom. Does the other side look the same?

Moved your post to Leather sewing machines. You need to provide a lot more information. Is the machine going to be used for thick or thin leather? plus many more questions. Look at this thread:

Moved to 'leather sewing machines'

Best place would seem to be 'leather sewing machines' as that is where most of the machine guys hang out.
