There are three little things that will help harness the penetrating power of your machine so you can stitch through heavy fabrics and multiple layers with ease. The combination of a Jeans needle, BERNINA Jeans Foot #8, and a straight stitch plate results in strong penetrating power that drives the needle through multiple layers of heavy fabric without overly flexing – and breaking – the needle.
