Piping adds a professional touch to home decor projects, tote bags and garments. The piping foot will give you perfect results and it’s a snap to learn!
I'm making a pillow on my serger. Thanks for the piping tips - using a first pass of 3 thread overlock and second pass of 4 thread overlock, the corner stitching, and the end stitching. I'm a bit nervous doing it all because the pillow top is woven overlock serger strips fused onto interfacing, and I don't want to mess it up! All the tips help a lot. Thanks!
Just watching this one video makes me realize I need to follow you on sewing. I'm a newbie & want to watch the pros. to give me success & quick tips. Thank you. 😁
I love the tip for turning the corners! I just made pillow covers with piping and couldn’t figure out how to curve the corner nicely on the serger. I’m definitely going to give this a try.
Looks really good. Thanks for the tip for using wider fabric strip. I never think of an obvious method that is better. That's why I love to watch for your tips.
Linda Bridges I like to cut fabric wider for easier handling for many different techniques. Thanks for watching Serger Tip Clips and send along suggestions for future ones or any questions!
Linda Bridges when I made my nephew’s baby’s cushion cover, I cut the fabric 2” wide and was just about to use my rotary cutter to trim off almost 300” of extra fabric (yikes) for the 2 (top and bottom) cushion edges piping when I realized the Serger would be faster, easier and more accurate.
Thank you for your excellent video describing the method for sewing in piping. I’m a newbie and I’m intending to use a serger. I’m creating a cover for my serger and I want to decorate it with piping on the seam edges. Your instructions are easy to follow. I’m very grateful!
@@GailPatriceDesign Hi Gail, I wrote up some notes after your video, so I could focus on step-by-step and realised I don't know how to join the cording when the circuit is complete. Do you have another video that explains how to neatly join the ends when they meet?
@@diandjohn4 I'll plan to do that Tip Clip next. There are several ways to do it, but I stop stitching about 3-4 inches from the end. Then I cut the filler cord to just meet the beginning edge. Cut the fabric 1 inch longer than the cord. Fold under the fabric edge and overlap it to the beginning edge. Pin the piping along the serger cover fabric and finish stitching. Let me know if that is clear or if you need more help. Thanks!
Hi Cindy, Welcome to the wonderful world of serging. Ask as many questions as you think of. Will be happy to hear from you and thanks for watching Serger Tip Clips!
Piping adds such a professional touch to garments , home dec and piped binding on quilts and placemats is beautiful. Glad you liked the video, Juls, and thanks for watching Serger Tip Clips!
Maybe an obvious question here, but the size of the cord you choose has to match the spec of the foot right? A ¾ cord would be used with a ¾ channel foot?
Hi, Technically, yes you could, but I wouldn’t advise trying to do the piping in one step. It’s too many layers to manage. Piping is such a lovely edge finish. You’ll get the most professional results by encasing the filler cord first, then Serging it in the seams of your project. Sometimes when I try to cut corners by doing something in a hurry, it ends up being more time consuming. I rip out unsatisfactory results and redo them. This probably isn’t the answer you were hoping for, but it’s my best advice. Thanks for watching and let me know if you have any other questions!
pauline T hi Pauline, thanks, but I know you’ll get amazing results too with the cording foot. Thanks for watching and be sure to subscribe to Serger Tip Clips!
Hi Edith, check the Brother.com website to see if there is a cording/piping foot for your model or call your local dealer and ask. If there isn’t a dealer close by, they may be willing to ship it to you. Also some generic brands will fit certain machines. You can check that on an internet search. Hope that helps and thanks for watching Serger Tip Clips!
Hi Gail, I really appreciate all your wonderful teachings! I own an Ovation, and would like to know how to use my doublefold, or singlefold biasbinder on baby burp cloths. I cut a square piece of fabric, then round the 4 corners. When I do the outer corners, the binding slips away and the machine stitches on the fabric only. I'm sure you can help! Pleeeease?
Bernice Cloete Hi Bernice, those corners are a steep curve that take practice. Using scrap fabric, cut the same pattern shapes (several) and multiple binding strips. Lighten the presser foot pressure slightly to make the fabric easier to maneuver under the foot. Stitch at a slow to moderate speed. You may have to stop every few stitches on the the steepest part of the curve, lift the foot (with the needle down), and pivot the fabric slightly. It takes some practice, but I think you’ll do it. Try this method and if you need more help, let me know. I’ll wait to hear from you. Did you watch the tip clip on the binder? Thanks!
Thanks Gail, I found the 'pivot' part the best! Now I can add my binding nicely. I really think you're the very best, precise Babylock teacher. Keep it up, and God bless!
@@bernicecloete4245 Wonderful news-congratulations on your success! I think of anything other than sewing in a straight line a " specialty technique" that takes some practice and finessing to get a perfect result. And nothing makes me happier than seeing sewists improve and expand their skills. So thanks for getting in touch and watching Serger Tip Clips. Tell your sewing.friends about it!
So, can you only use .5 mm cording with that foot? I bought .75 mm cording so do I have to have a different foot. I guess I should decide on what cord I should use? Is that foot for an overlocker/serger?
Cathie Huxtable yes, Cathie. The presser foot fits my serger. I’ll bet you can still use the bigger cording. Make a sample to test it.Did you plan to use a sewing machine or serger? Thanks for watching Serger Tip Clips!
Stephanie Boik hi Stephanie, You join the piping just the same as when using your sewing machine. As I approach the end, I cut the piping ends to meet, cut the fabric cover with enough to turn under about 1/2”. Lap it over the raw edge of the fabric and finish serging. (Maybe I’ll do a future Tip Clip on it). Let me know if you need more help and thanks for watching Serger Tip Clips!
Hi Brenda, I'll do a Tip clip on connecting the ends piping. Stop stitching 2 -3" before the end. Cut the end of the filler cord to just meet the beginning end, Trim the fabric on the finishing end 1/2" longer than the cord. Fold under1/4" and overlap it on the beginning end. Pin and stitch in place. Let me know if you have questions and thanks for watching Serger Tip Clips!
@@GailPatriceDesign I look forward to your finishing video for this. I just finished my pillow but I'm sure you'll show an easier way although my fabric was square same size the top always came out longer than bottom at every bottom corner after stitching off the end. Why might this happen?
@@brendarainwater6049 Hi Brenda, The fabric that's against the feed dogs (the bottom layer) will almost always feed through slightly faster thus making the top fabric slightly longer at the end. That's why when stitching stripes, plaids, etc on a sewing machine, you'll use a walking foot (Even feed or dual feed-all the same foot, just different names). If I need both layers to be exactly the same, I often baste them together right at the end point or pin them. I might slightly stretch the bottom fabric but not enough to matter. Hope that helps. Thanks!
Hi, Can i have the exact settings of this? I have the husqvarna viking overlock 936. Not sure where to put the needle and what settings needed. Please help. Thank you!
Hi Anna, all tensions are normal settings. Stitch length 2.5 - 3.0; Differential feed 1.0. Do you have a piping or cording foot? If you don’t have one, an adjustable zipper foot on your sewing machine will work. Let me know if you need more info and thanks for watching Serger Tip Clips!
Beth Bilous Hi Beth, you can purchase the piping/cording foot at your local sewing machine dealer. Each brand has its own compatible foot. Let me know if you have more questions and thanks for watching Serger Tip Clips !
Howdy Gail! Just saw your tutorial. How are you able to get the cord foot attached to the Cut and Hem foot?? That has me boggled like you wouldn't believe!!😄😄😄😄😄😄😄
Snap on your zipper foot and use a straight stitch. The zipper foot allows you to get in close to the piping cord. If your machine allows you to move the needle, that will also help. Let me know if you have more questions. Thanks!
@@tricklefsen hi Trish, use whichever size foot works for the size filler cord. Move your needle left a couple of clicks for the first stitching to encase the cord . Then when stitching between the two fabric layers, move the needle closer to the cording. By doing it this way, that first line of stitching won’t show. Let me know if that helps and thanks! Happy 4th of July weekend.🇺🇸🎇
I quilted the cushion cover but used the fabric (unquilted) for the piping. As long as your piping and fabric fit into the piping channel, it should work. As always, make a sample to adjust stitch length, etc to be sure. You might also have to adjust your presser foot pressure if the fabric is bulky. Keep me posted if you need more help and thanks for watching Serger Tip Clips!

Yzabeaux1 Hi Yzabeaux1! The cording/piping foot is the only foot on the machine.it doesn’t block the knife from trimming off the extra seam allowance and it snaps on the machine just as any other foot would. Hope that clears up the mystery but let me know if you have more questions. Thanks for watching!
@@GailPatriceDesign THANKS GAIL, I'm visualizing it already! The cutting tool ; it surely can't already be built into the machine as it would cut everything in its path. There has to be a gizmo that looks like it would go alongside the feeding plates to accomplish this task. I'm guessing it's a separate component that is affixed to some area in the machine made specifically for completing this task. Sorry for the curiosity, Gail, could you name that particular cutting gadget? 😉😉😉😉😉👍👍👍👍👍 Thanks so much for your help!!😉😉😉👍👍👍👍💖💖💖
@@Yzabeaux1 I'm pleased with your curiosity! The machine that I'm working on is a serger (also called an overlocker). It is a completely different machine than a sewing machine. It has a built in cutting blade for trimming seam allowances while stitching and overlocking the raw edges. The blade can be disengaged for certain stitching purposes, but is usually activated most of the time. thanks!
Gail Yellen EUREKA!😂😂😂👍👍👍 Now I know why it was looking like the machine had two heads!!!😂😂😂😂😂 It's a serger!!! Dear Soul, bear with me; but I haven't heard of a "serger" until now.😲😲😲😲😲😲😲 "THANK YOU" for the enlightenment😉😉😉👍👍👍👍I "genuinely" am "GRATEFUL!😉😉😉👍👍👍💖💖💖💖💖
Yzabeaux1 I don’t know what kind of sewing you like to do, but sergers are fantastic machines. They give projects a finished look inside as well as outside. As I mentioned, they are completely different from sewing machines and have a bit of a learning curve, but are fantastic . I honestly couldn’t sew without one!
For 8-thread Babylock sergers, the foot # is: BLE8-CF (5mm). If you have a 4-thread model, the # is: BLE-CF5. If you are working on a different brand serger, check the manufacturer's website for info. Hope that helps and thanks for watching Serger Tip Clips!
I've never even thought about sewing off the edge, then back on around the corner. Can't wait to try this. Great tip clip Gail - thanks!
Hi Lisa, Glad you enjoyed the technique. I plan to do a follow-up on how to finish the piping! Thanks for watching Serger Tip Clips!
I never would have guessed someone could turn a corner sewing piping on a serger. Yes - it is a SLICK trick. Thank you
Irene Moreaux hi Irene, yes and I hope you try it to see how easy it is. Thanks for watching Serger Tip Clips and be sure to tell your sewing friends!
