bruce johnson Report post Posted November 25, 2007 Kevin, I just sew it with my normal setup on my machines and sews like about anything else. I was warned that the beads will deflect the needles, but haven't had that happen. I am not sewing across the areas with the big beads or the white spots though. I have not had the need to hand sew it yet. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Major Report post Posted November 26, 2007 As Bruce said the beads will deflect the needle. You can run a stitching channel with a carbide burr to prevent the deflection. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mark Garrity Report post Posted December 4, 2007 Another method, if you are adhering it to a foundation leather such as making a belt and you want to keep the stitches straight on the leather side, is to sticth from the bottom or leather side.
