What size is a denim sewing machine needle?
You probably want to use a denim needle, because denim is heavier than most other materials, and an average needle may not go through it as well
How do you explain about thick fabric to sew?
Of course, it depends somewhat on the type of fabric.For a home machine, the needle needs to be strong -- say up to size 16 (or 100 in European sizes) or bigger, if you machine can handle it. Not all home machines can accommodate needles larger than 16 (100). For most thick woven fabrics, a SHARP needle, or leather needle might be appropriate. I have never sewn thick, knit fabric, but my serger and home machines, with size 12 (80) universal, ball or stretch needle have handled the load without problem. You can also adjust the pressure on the foot, if necessary, to get a better stitch. To keep layers together on a home machine -- for thick or not so thick fabric -- I almost always use my walking foot attachment. Heavy-duty sewing might be too much for a home machine.An industrial walking foot machine might be needed for very heavy, thick fabric loads. The presser foot lift, however, can be a limiting factor in the thicknesses it can handle. My two machines can take needles up to size 25, but since they are timed to use size 16 - 22, according to my dealer, I should stick to those needle sizes. I use size 18 and 20 almost exclusively. An industrial walking foot machine can handle heavy, leather fabric layers with ease, keeping the sandwiched layers nicely together. The walking foot is built into the machine mechanism and is not a separate attachment. It is not designed to be used for medium or lighter weight sewing.

Can a Kenmore 158.13360 sew leather?
Yes, if the leather is thin enough, your needle sharp enough, and thread strong enough. Look for a thin, soft leather such as kid. It will help to change out your needle to a much sharper "leather" needle, which also has more metal between the tip and the eye, to punch through the heavy material better before pulling thread through it. You may want to use nylon filament as replacement for normal thread. You won't hurt any part of the machine proper, but be careful you don't push the motor too hard; you don't want to burn it out or break the belt.You may have to adjust the thread tensions, since the top thread will be pulling through thick material. Don't expect to sew quickly. Although your machine (a model 33) is a workhorse, leather is usually sewn on specialized machines, and you are asking it to do something a bit out of its league.
