Does anyone have any cloth presets I can use to simulate the various cloth types?
I don't know which parameters to adjust to make a leather type cloth material using vellum.

For leather you want to increase the Compression Stiffness, and maybe even turn it off. Likewise, boosting the bend stiffness might be needed depending on the density of the mesh. However, as it does depend on topology, I can't give you numbers to plug directly in.

A .hip file is a thousand pictures.

If your cloth is stretching too much, first increase substeps to 5 if you haven't already. Then increase Constraint Iterations to be at least the diameter of the cloth in edges. Higher res cloth needs more iterations.
