this sewing fault can happen due to ---- incorrect sewing tension (adjust the tension) ----needle incorrectly set in needle clamp ( reset the needle) ----incorrect threading ( re thread machine ) ----poorly lubricated thread ( use better quality thread ) ----feed dog sway ( tighten the feed dog ) ---- pressure foot bounce ( proper pressure foot )

okz here im for your solution Counter: A stiff piece of material at the heel of a shoe positioned between the lining and upper that helps maintain the shape of the shoe. The counter helps strengthen the rear of the soe. Heel: The heel is the part of the sole that raises the rear of the shoe in relation to the front. The heal seat is the top of the heal that touches the upper, this is typically shaped to match the form of the upper. The part of the the heel that comes in contact with the ground is known as the the top piece. Insole: A layer of material that sits inside the shoe that creates a layer between the sole and the wearer's foot. A la The insole adds comfort for the wearer, while hiding the join between the upper. Linings: Most shoes include a lining on the inside of the shoe, around the vamp and quarter. These linings improve comfort, and can help increase the lifespan of the shoe. Outsole: The exposed part of the sole that is contact with the ground. As with all parts of the shoe, outsoles are made from a variety of materials. The properties the outsole need are: grip, durability, and water resistance Puff: a reinforcing inside the upper which gives the toe its shape and support. Similar in function to a toe cap. Quarter: The rear and sides of the upper that covers the heel that are behind the vamp. The heel section of the quarter is often strengthened with a stiffener, which helps support the rear of the foot. Some shoe designs use a continuous piece of leather for the vamp and quarter. Seat: Where the heel of the fit sits in the shoe. It normally matches the shape of the heal for comfort and support. 'Shank: A piece of metal inserted between the sole and the insole lying against the arch of the foot. Sole: The entire part of the shoe that sites below the wearers foot. As opposed to the upper. The upper and sole make up the whole of the shoe. Throat: The front of the vamp next to the toe cap. For shoes were the vamp and quarter panels are one piece the throat is at the eye-stay. Toe cap: Shoes may have a toe cap in the front upper of the shoe. Toe caps can take various forms, but the distinct types are: complete replacements for the front upper of the shoe; stitched over toecaps that add an extra layer to the upper; solid toe caps for protection, such as steel toe caps. Stitch over toe caps may be decorative in nature. Toe caps help add stength to the upper front of the shoe, an area that receives a lot of stress and wear from use. Top Piece: The part of the heel that comes in contact with the ground. Made of a durable material that helps maintain friction with the ground. Topline: The top edge of the upper Upper: The entire part of the shoe that covers the foot. Vamp: The section of upper that covers the front of the foot as far as the back as the join ot the quarter. Waist: The arch and in-step of the foot. Welt: A strip of material that joins the upper to the sole dnt forget to ask me anything about shoe
