    hello, I am a new sub to your channel. I just watched another person upholstering an antique chair. Boy, was he sloppy. Just wanted to tell you, I love to see your talent. I have learned a lot I admire your neatness and techniques. Thank you for teaching me!

    Amazing! Thank you very much!! I have been dreaming to do some of this work, but there are no places to get hands on instruction. This is it!! The piece looks beautiful and I can appreciate how careful and patient you are, making sure that the piece looks professional.

    thanks for the tip! I was going to staple the cording in like it was done previously by the manufacturer, never even thought of using a glue gun!

  • @ritaschoch4073

    Hi Kim, thanks for the great video. I'm a newbie to upholstering so this was super helpful. Question....I know that cutting fabric on the bias is the standard/recommended method, but it wastes so much fabric! Does it really make that much difference?

  • @tonicamp7069
    @tonicamp7069 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Kim, could you please do a video on how to join double piping? I have been upholstering for several years...but just can't find a neat way to join double piping. Or if you already have a video please point me in that direction. Love your videos. Never hurts to see how others are doing things. Thank you so much!

  • @TheStPVideos
    @TheStPVideos 8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Thank you. Exactly what I needed. I'm having trouble locating a good double cording foot. Which one are you using?

  • @smellyrhinostudio
    @smellyrhinostudio 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    does it matter what size cording? I bought double welt feet and got a pack of 3 sizes for my juki. 1/8, 3/16, and 1/4. the double welt cording says 5/16" I'm confused about what to buy.

  • @sharonwilson9520
    @sharonwilson9520 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Can any sewing machine make this cording if the right foot is purchased? Thank you.

  • @AnnaCheunginteriors

    I am new to upholstery but have completed several pieces. I am currently reupholstering an antique arm chair. The client wants double cording as opposed to the French trim that was on the chair already. This will be a first for me sewing double cording. Question: In your video, you use two lengths of single cording. The cording I ordered from an upholstery supply is already double. Is there a video for this type? Or do I just wrap both pieces into the fabric and sew? Thanks! I love your videos - so helpful.

    • @kimberleychagnon7917
      @kimberleychagnon7917 9 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi Anna Cheung , you would just wrap and sew the both pieces. I find the two pieces give me a more defined double cord, but what you have will look just fine.
      Thanks for watching,
      Kim

    Thank you so much for another great video.Question, my first cording it larger than second piece right next to it? No matter how "tight" I held the fabric the left side is larger than the right? I checked and the cording is in the grooves and needle centered? do you know why...yours looks like both cording sizes is the same? I'm using 3/16" cording. Thanks.

    • @KimsUpholstery
      @KimsUpholstery  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi Cathy, You are probably pushing the fabric to one side more than the other. It is easy to do this without even knowing that is what you are doing. Check out our other tutorials in our online classes kimsupholstery.com for more detailed instruction.

    Hola , por que motivo cortas la tela en diagonal ? .
    by cutting the fabric diagonally reason?.

    • @KimsUpholstery
      @KimsUpholstery  9 ปีที่แล้ว

      +tolomeo sosa Hola, We cut the fabric in the bias (diagonal) ti make the cording straight. If you cut your fabric straight of grain it tends to curl the finished cording. This is not necessary when using vinyl or leather. Hope that answers your question. Thanks for watching. Kim See you on the inside. Every one else is there.

    @wood77904 10 ปีที่แล้ว

    Thanks for the helpful video. I was surprised to see you use hot glue to attach the cording. Is this common in upholstery work? I have always considered hot glue to be a crafter's tool, and not very durable.

    • @KimsUpholstery
      @KimsUpholstery  10 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Robert Wood We use a high temp hot glue for double cording and gimp. Works well and is strong. It bonds to fabric well. Kim

    Can you sew this double cording with a regular sewing machine and no special foot somehow?

    • @Cpickerel
      @Cpickerel 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      I have the same question. I can't find a welting foot to fit my machine.
