I had to subscribe...So informative and I'm a beginner and I'm going to do a project soon.
Ah…thank you so much!
Again-great tutorial!
Thank you Helena!
Awesome video 👍🏼
Thank you Samira!
Great video. Thanks for breaking it down so specifically. So many tutorials gloss right over that. Curious why you chose not to remove the first layer of fabric?
Thanks for your channel. I’m about to tackle my sofa and loveseat slipcovers you taught ❤️
Thank you. I probably should’ve taken the bottom layer off, especially since it was old and brittle. I just got lazy, and since I was filming, the process takes so much longer I got impatient and just wanted to move on.
Thank you,I Love your videos, I have all the tools and have taken 3 classes but. Still am not confident. I need help with that metal strip. Love all your projects.
thank you Tammy! I'm recording part 2 today. I'll cover the the metal tack strip.
@@MimzyandCompany oh great, I would also like a tour of your work space… it’s always nice to see others work space, I just have to make do with a basement, but at least it’s dry.
@@tammywinter9268 ok. I’ll have to that….I love seeing other peoples workrooms too.
4:52 awl (tool) is indeed used in leather working/shoe making. BUT was also (and is still) used in historic clothing costumes design sewing. From far before the Mediaeva times. To make lacing eyelets in clothing and especially in stays/corsets to tread your lacing ribbon through. Because an awl doesn't break the fabric fibers - but pushes them away to create a hole. Which is better for the durability of your garment fabric. And those eyelet holes you finish by sewing around the hole to make it even stronger against wear & tear. ✌🏻😊
That is sew interesting!😅 I love to learn this stuff! The pushing of the fibers aside and then stitching around the hole sounds similar to the way hand hem stitching is done on decorative home decor items like napkins and tablecloths etc. I LOVE IT! thanks for commenting. I'd love to learn more costume design...consequently I taught a bit of costume design at the performing arts high school near me because the costume design teacher they hired didn't know how to sew...weird right? so she taught the history stuff and I taught the sewing techniques. It was really fun.
Hi. Thank you so much for this tutorial. So very helpful. Tried using your link for recommended fabric and it is no longer available. Any other similar you recommend for sofa upholstery? Thank you.
Thank you for commenting! I would go directly to revolutionfabrics.com to buy upholstery fabric.
