grafiks Report post Posted December 7, 2012 I have purchased a sewing machine for sewing heavy leather. I would love to find some instruction on using the machine. Beginner so basic information, adjusting tension, what thread to use, etc. I want to make leather belts and stitch around the edge with contrasting color thread. 8/9 oz leather. Would love to find a week long class or maybe a weekend class. Thanks, Bob mtnair@skybest.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

grafiks Report post Posted December 8, 2012 Sorry Western North Carolina I am willing to travel for a good informative class. I know you can't learn everything in a week or so but just need to get started. I guess I am paranoid of messing up my machine. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

paris3200 Report post Posted January 2, 2013 Not sure about a class, but Zack White leather in Ramseur, NC sales sewing machines. They might be able to offer some help. Depending on where you are in NC it might only be a few hours drive for you. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
