Ronald K Report post Posted January 22, 2014 Is anybody else using a Singer slant needle sewing machine for leather? This is a 1050’s vintage direct gear drive home sewing machine but it seems to work really well for leather. In fact If it fits under the presser foot, this machine seems to handle it well. Im using denim needles and upholstery thread with good results but wonder if there is a better needle and thread for leather. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
