Maybe you can explain what you mean. How thick is the material overall and what needle and thread size are you using and what do you think is "not normal"?

Looks ok to me, it depends on the type of needle you're using. Some give a slanted stitch, some give a straight stitch.

I've got a 545 H3, my stitches are angled like that as well, not quite as much but I'm working with thinner leather and vinyl though.
