Can someone break this down into easier steps?
okay i got this answer, but i’m having problems following them, not the brightest!
Put a piece of fabic on the inside of the jacket. The thread will hold the embroidery and the fabric together and there will be less strain on on the leather.
You have seen embroideries on Motorcycle Jackets? They have dozens – on the back, front and sleeves.
If they tore as easily as you are wondering about, the person doing the sewing would be in a big heap of trouble.
The sewing is usually a zig-zag stitch done on a sewing machine with a needle for leather.
You have to open the lining so the stitching is done on the leather and backing fabric only.
I have seen this done with a Brother home sewing machine at a Harley Davidson dealership by a little old lady like me
It sounds like you are trying to embroider a leather jacket correct?
I would find a piece of thin cloth fabric to line the area which you wish to embroider.
Purchase a larger gage needle (14 ga) or whatever is recommended, I would ask the sales people in the sewing store/dept. that you go to.
Use the tightest zigzag stitch that you’re sewing machine will set to and go slow when you are sewing. The faster you go the more easily you will make a mistake or break a needle. Been there, done that.
Good luck. I hope I answered your question.
