Teradee Report post Posted May 3, 2023 Hi! does anyone have advice on a good brand and shop to purchase needles for the 144w204? Also, is there a specific “leather” point option? Thanks! Jason Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If I'm not mistaken the Singer 144W204 uses the 7x3 needles which is the same as the 794 needles but check your manual. For sewing leather you would use a 794 LR needle in the appropriate size for the thread. I personally like the Schmetz brand of needles. You can buy needles from various sewing machine dealers that advertise here. kgg Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jason Schmetz is a good brand that has alot of different leather points & the most common ones are the "S" point that makes your stitches look look straight & the "LR" that gives it a handstiched or zig-zag look.We stock both styles.
