A little video to show how to make your own piping cord/ welt to use for projects where you want it to match the fabric being used.
Some sewing experience would be helpful but not necessary, a little practice should be fine.
You will need:
A large flat cutting bench/ area
A long ruler or even better a mtr rule
Decent scissors/ shears
5mm piping cord (or as close as possible)
Sewing machine with piping foot
Please feel free to ask us any questions

Thank for this video. What foot were you using, was that a piping foot?

@premierupholstery-upholste90 2 месяца назад

@@SibylleHyde hi and thanks for watching. Yes we used a piping foot for this. Luckily with this machine we can use the same foot for nearly all work so don’t have to change it very often which saves a lot of time

Hi. Love this video. I would like to ask what is the exact fabric did u use. Thank u

@premierupholstery-upholste90 Год назад

Hi and thanks for watching our video. This is a fabric from a UK company called Wemyss and this was from their Hutton collection of faux linens

Thank you, so much for sharing! Have always sewn piping on bias. This method is extremely easier, and faster, with the same quality.

@premierupholstery-upholste90 7 месяцев назад

Thank you for watching! Yes it’s nice and easy and we do it this way most of the time, bias does have advantages some times though

@JOHNVLOG03 10 месяцев назад

what is the type or name of that presserfoot that you are using sir?

@premierupholstery-upholste90 10 месяцев назад

Hi and thanks for watching. This is a piping foot 4mm which we use for most jobs

@dorothymistry1348 2 года назад

What zipper foot is best?

@premierupholstery-upholste90 2 года назад

You can use a dedicated zipper foot for your specific machine, we have them for ours which work very well but sometimes we just use the piping foot which works fine once you know how to do it

@ruthkazingizi-chiponda2795 2 года назад

Do u sew right through the cord or just next to the cord

@premierupholstery-upholste90 2 года назад

Hi and thank you for watching. You sew just next to the cord, the piping foot on the sewing machine will automatically put it in the right place and you just need to feed it through and keep the fabric strip equal as it goes through.

@bethbilous4720 2 года назад

Why not cutting on bias, does it matter?

@premierupholstery-upholste90 2 года назад

No it doesn’t matter, we very rarely do it like that and especially not when we are matching up a pattern like a stripe

@nopt1118 Год назад

Thank you for that clarification. You've saved me a lot of fabric. I am also using the type of cord you've used there. What type of coding foot us that please. I have a Juki DU1181N walking foot machine and also a juki DL8700 heavy duty machine. Thanks.

@IMOO1896 Год назад

So, the walking foot is actually on top of the high point?

@premierupholstery-upholste90 Год назад

Yes it is on top but this is a piping foot which has a groove cut out to allow the piping to pass through and not get flattened while sewing along the edge of the cord at the same time, they come in various sizes to suit your needs and size of piping

@KevSwan 7 месяцев назад

Hello, what model number is that machine? Seen a few trustworthy brother ones around but unsure which have the walking foot like yours :)

@helenmachelen4200 Год назад

Is that a piping foot?

@premierupholstery-upholste90 Год назад

Hi and thanks for watching, yes this is a piping foot and on this machine we tend to use it 99% of the time as it’s so versatile even when not doing piping. With other machines we usually swap the feet when piping is or isn’t needed
