speedybri Report post Posted December 19, 2023 Hi everyone. I have a cobra class 4. Just bought and just started using. Up until now I've hand sewn everything. Something I hadn't thought about popped up today.. when sewing a piece if hardware to a strap, buckle, ring, etc... going one way I can stitch fairly close to the hardware. Going the other way the presser foot comes down where the leather is folded over the hardware. So the it doesn't want ti feed the leather correctly then and the first few stitches look awful. If I flip thw strap over so I can sew towards the hardware then the bottom stitches become the top stitches and don't look as nice. See my photos attached. Is there a way to fix this? Special presser foot? Thank you all in advance for the help. I truly appreciate it. Brian Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bladegrinder Report post Posted December 19, 2023 Can’t you stitch in reverse two stitches to the metal loop then switch to forward, stitch however long you want, then reverse again for a couple stitches? Maybe I’m not sure what your asking. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
