Hello! I have a sling bag that I really like, but the strap doesn’t take it as close to my body as I would like. I have a sewing machine, but I have never used it for stitching seatbelt webbing. What sort of needle would I need to use, and which type of thread would be best suited for the material?

I have pushed past the point of common sense with my machine before and snapped needles. They go flying.
