Sewing ripstop fabric can be a total nightmare! It is a super slippery nylon fabric that is very challenging to sew, seam and finish. However, whether you buy ripstop in cut pieces or ripstop by the roll, it is a great fabric to use for projects where you need a weather resistant fabric. In my case I needed to create a waterproof covering for my backyard gazebo that was both functional and beautiful. I purchased waterproof ripstop fabric by the yard online very affordably.
In this video you can learn how to sew ripstop fabric in a way that is actually easy, fast and beautiful! NO puckering necessary! I went through WEEKS of testing to find the right way to sew ripstop and finally arrived at the ideal sewing machine, sewing foot, stitch width and length, and how to feed this slippery fabric just right to get the best results. The best thing I learned while researching and testing the best way to sew ripstop fabric is that using specialized feet with my Baby Lock Acclaim serger can make a giant difference!
