Maybe some confusion here with postings from multiple people.
I made the little denim and bandana cowboy vest bib (thanks kalady!) and I had a devil of a time doing the topstitching where the two vest pieces overlap. Other than that I don't think I have ever sewn with denim. So, no I didn't use a denim needle. I was simply saying that even sewing blocks together or rows of blocks together my Pfaff struggles where multiple seams come together.[quote=featherweight][quote=Navy Wife]

Are you using a denim needle and the right sized thread in bobbin and on top? I've never had any problem with mine sewing denim. My first Pfaff was a 1471 with IDT. Now have the CV.
I certainly have never had a problem with my 7570 sewing over any thickness. Of course I would never sew any leather with it, that is what our old machines are for. :thumbup:
