I’m so glad I bought my Sailrite LSZ1. Received it a few weeks ago been practicing with it, has not let me down. Sailrite is one great company! If you thinking about buying one just do it, you will not be disappointed. Right now I’m practicing sewing some piping on a practice motorcycle seat cover that I just made pleats on. Works like a champ!!
It has been a few years since I had done any upholstery sewing and I just completed a huge project for friend by covering a split bay window cushion. The front edge was about 11 ft long and I installed piping on the top plate and I had to match the stripes in the fabric where the two cushions met in the middle. I would never have had the confidence to tackle this project without watching the videos on your website. Thank you for your help and, if I might say so myself, it turned out great! The family I did this for loves it and now in their eyes I'm the best thing since sliced bread. This was a barter for my sewing desk extension that Alan built and installed for me. I did all the sewing on my vintage Bernina 930 Record and use the zipper foot for installing the piping. Because the material that they purchased raveled so heavily I surged the edges of all the completed seams in the hopes of keeping this cover together for many years. I also created a sort of ticking cover for underneath, that I hand stitched closed, which gave me the opportunity to work out any problem areas before working on The decorator fabric. Discover makes it much easier to remove the fashion fabric to wash it since they have three pups in their family. I had to create the piping by cutting the bias strips myself and the whole process of creating and installing the piping was my favorite part. When I'm ready to reupholster cushions on our lawn furniture I will definitely be shopping your site for fabric.
Thank you for such clear explanations and demonstrations too. Wonderful TH-cam sent me this. How lucky am I. Now I need to find Part 1 by you because you are a natural superb teacher! Please keep teaching. Your teaching is so pleasant to hear & see!
Oh how I wish my dad could have seen this video. He was a master upholster, he did most of his own machining. When it came to box cushions with piping he struggled with them being perfect. Thank you
it's good too see you take the time when sewing I thought i was a bad sewer when i went slow! thank you for showing me even a profession takes the time.
Thank you. I’ve sewn all my life (60 years of sewing) and have never been able to make a boxed side pillow like that. The side always gets away from me! Now I feel confident!
Thank you for you video! I am a male that needs to learn how to do piping for a arm of a lounge chair. You were very helpful. Now I can surprise my wife to show her how clever I am!!!!!!!
What a fantastic tutorial! I was searching high and low how to do piping and came across your video! Thank you so much for sharing in such an articulate manner !
You can trim back side afterwards. Also with pick you can get in between stitches and make shape of pillow or whatever look crisp after it's installed. Tricks of trade are very helpful. Remember slower you go nicer job looks. Speed comes with time
This was an awesome video. I never really knew how to finish off the piping and I just overlapped everything which as u know makes a mess. So it was very helpful to see how you finished this off. Good job and thanks.
Great video ....im sat here thinking do i leave my bench ( bespoke garden furniture i make ) seats wooden or add faux leather cusions ....this video helped me decide ...sooutwith the sewing machine it is then :)
We'll its about bloody time a man sewing. That's right been can sew to. thank u for this video. I am a beginner I got my first sewing machine last month. I can't wait to use it. but b4i do I am doing research. I all so have tooling leather projects going on as well as gardening. well Thk u very much.
I make cylindrical bags for a living, and when I sew the circle to the flat side I always have the circle on top as I have better control over the corner. Even though my circles are small (tennis ball size) I do not need to cut the edge of the flat fabric as it is effectively running a straight stitch, while the circle is turning out and so if anything its edge is being compressed- but that is not the case. On other projects sometimes having them the other way is unavoidable, and that is much harder.

I want to learn sewing/tayloring from the scatch which application will provide me with full details on the subject? Is ther any recommendation of sewing book?
Hi there, Thank you for sharing this concise video on piping, i found it very helpful! Would you be kind enough to advise what the most ideal sewing machine to work with leather, linings, piping etc is? Kind Regards and look forward to see your other current videos.
papi chulo Yes, if you are going to sew leather, linings (medium to heavy weight) and piping applications I would pick the Ultrafeed LS-1 Walking Foot Sewing Machine. Here is a link: www.sailrite.com/easearch#!Sailrite-Sewing-Machines/Ultrafeed-Sewing-Machine&ea_a=Color%3AReds
This is the Sailrite Ultrafeed LSZ-1 sewing machine. Here is a link to more information: www.sailrite.com/Sewing-Machines/Portable-Heavy-Duty-Sewing-Machines
I think this is a helpful tutorial however, regarding the longer piece of fabric on the outside when joining the cord, I would turn it in a few millimeters to avoid a raw edge of fabric from freyin, when sewn over the other piece.
I make my own piping and then usually staple it between the 2 plates and sew it all together. I don't sew the piping on to one plate first because you would be sewing it 3 times over one another , the foot just follows the cord every time. Is this something to concern yourself with?
Great video. Very helpful. No long intro, no crappy music, no erroneous info. You just got another subscriber. Thank you.
Excellent!
Best video I could find for showing how to install and finish of piping a pillow. Thanks a lot from Canada👍

Does a Sailrite Fabricator include a cording foot? If not, do you sell them separately? (I can’t seem to find it online)
Please where can I get the cord, thanks for the tutorial.
that was a good tutorial, can u please show me how to do normal piping for the neck without cord
Great video. The motor on the sewing machine sounds very powerful. What type of sewing machine are you using in the video?
This is the Sailrite Ultrafeed LSZ-1 sewing machine. Here is a link to more information: www.sailrite.com/Sewing-Machines/Portable-Heavy-Duty-Sewing-Machines
OMG!!! He sounds like Chef John of All Recipes.com videos! Maybe he's Chef John too....
It's allrecipes.com & he talks like Chef John, kinda looks like him with mustache, but maybe slimmer than this 3 yr old video.
Just Perfect Instruction!
Thanks.
Thank you very much! 😉🐝🖐
I think this is a helpful tutorial however, regarding the longer piece of fabric on the outside when joining the cord, I would turn it in a few millimeters to avoid a raw edge of fabric from freyin, when sewn over the other piece.
