What if I have to put Style-vil foam interfacing for stability and the advice with fabric is to fuse it from the fabric side? I can't put the iron on faux leather, but the foam is thick and I don't know if it will stick or is advisable to iron...
I think it would not stick, as such interfacing requires both heat and damp cloth (both not good to use on faux leather). Maybe sew-in version of Style-vil would work better for your project?
Very nice work! I have a question on the thread. Where I get my sewing supplies they do not have thread that is made for leather or suede They have strong denim, furniture thread and a mending thread. I had just ordered needles for leather, as I'm repairing a zipper in some new boots, but I didn't think of needing a different thread. I live on this little island in Norway and there isn't a sewing or fabric store so everything has to be ordered online. My next order if I can find a thread I will order some.
Hello Annie! I believe that denim thread should work, too - in fact, a lot of threads that are leather-dedicated also mentions that it's suitable for denim, so denim thread should also work on leather, too!
@@Julija_Gobere Thank you! I do have denim thread. This will be a big job putting a zipper in a boot, but these are brand new boots and I don't have a place that could repair it for me. It got stuck in the fur and now it will not zip up or down. Maybe once I get it taken off the boot I can get it to work again but I will still need to sew it back on.
@oskarmolly in this situation may be better choice hand sew your ziper, you already have holes in leather, so all tools you need only thread and needle
You need to do a video on placing the zipper in the leather or faux leather garment.
Good work! I love the idea of hidden embroidery. So fun! Thanks for sharing. I look forward to more leather sewing videos. I'm eager to try it.
Glad to hear you enjoyed the video! The embroidery detail turned out so cute, I wonder why I didn't think to do it earlier 😅
Can you do a video on faux leather themming?
I really appreciate it.
Very informative videos
Thank you very much, can you please share how you pretreat the faux leather & how do you care for the garment?
Hi there. How about the bobbin & bobbin case for sewing leather. I guess the regular bobbin & bobbin case are not suitable for nylon thread.
Thank you! Did you press the hem?
Pressed it on low heat and cloth on top🤗
