toxo Posted May 16, 2023 Report Posted May 16, 2023 Been trying this without success. Here's what I'm talking about but hand stitched on a much smoother curve. Hand stitching lends itself very well when going around tight corners because every stitch pulls the two sides together bit by bit but when you try to do it on the machine you can't see the underlying piece so you must use a guide line or glue it but a tight corner forces the leather to rise up under the presser foot. You want to turn the gusset but can't because it's underneath. And yes, I did try cutting notches. Has anyone conquered this seam around a corner without resorting to a different machine? Quote
Gulrok Posted May 17, 2023 Report Posted May 17, 2023 Theoretically if the leather was soft enough you MAAAAY be able to manage the seam on a post bed sewing machine... likely not though. Quote
toxo Posted May 17, 2023 Author Report Posted May 17, 2023 (edited) Don't have a post bed. You would've thought that In this day and age someone could come up with a machine that could have a drop down cylinder arm to make way for a raised up rounded needle plate. That would sew these damn corners. Edited May 17, 2023 by toxo Quote
