Helpful Tips for Sewing Heavyweight Fabrics

To sew heavyweight fabrics, use a SINGER brand needle, in a larger than standard size.
When sewing denim, use a SINGER denim style 2026 needle.
Note: Using another brand of needle can cause tension issues to your sewing machine.

Attach the All-Purpose Presser Foot.


Set the sewing machine to Straight Stitch.
Set the Stitch Length between 4 and 5.

We recommend that you use all-purpose sewing thread for the top and bobbin thread.
However, if you would like to use topstitching thread for a decorative effect, use it for the top
thread ONLY. Use all-purpose sewing thread for the bobbin thread.

Sew at a controlled moderate speed when sewing heavyweight fabrics or over thick fabric seams.
