Members Constabulary Posted 21 hours ago Members Report Posted 21 hours ago 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"?

Members dikman Posted 16 hours ago Members Report Posted 16 hours ago Looks ok to me, it depends on the type of needle you're using. Some give a slanted stitch, some give a straight stitch.

The type of needle makes various stitch lines. Take a look through the attached fileGroz-Beckert Needle Chart.pdf Quote
