Hi! I have been reading for a while, but this is my first post. I am making soft bags and attempting to glue seams before sewing. No matter what adhesive I have tried to use, how long I let it dry, etc,, it always gums up the machine needle and breaks the thread. I have tried; weldwood, 3m 30nf, aqualim and double sided leather tape.
I have a Consew portable walking foot and am using #69 thread. Even though I am using a walking foot, if I don't glue (and even if I use bulldog clips), the layers shift and I end up with things that are uneven by the time I get to the end of a seam.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
