    @greavous93 Рік тому +2

    I often leave the stitch unlocked and cut with about 4 inches of extra thread remaining. I then flip over the workpiece and lift the inside thread to pull the outside thread to the inside and then tie it off. I do this most when the stitch just stops and there is no other option.

    • @oldschoolautoupholstery
      @oldschoolautoupholstery  Рік тому +1

      Hello Greavous, Excellent method! I call this hand-tying a stitch. This is helpful if you run out of bobbin midway through a top stitch. Thanks for watching!

    What kind of machine did you have 40 years ago?

    • @oldschoolautoupholstery
      @oldschoolautoupholstery  Рік тому +3

      I had a Chandler-Adler German-made sewing machine. It ran like a fine watch, so smooth and quiet. After about 35 years it finally wore out. It never gave me any trouble and was never worked on. I sure do miss it...

  • @buickgeorge
    @buickgeorge Рік тому +3

    So doing it this way does that eliminate need for reinforcing material behind it? If so, what about seat edges will they be as durable and strong?

    • @oldschoolautoupholstery
      @oldschoolautoupholstery  Рік тому +2

      If done the way I show it, there will never be any problems. Thanks for watching!

    • @JustAboutAnything66
      @JustAboutAnything66 Рік тому +2

      Yeah, without the reinforcement there is no point, other than looks. Why not just add it? You're already using the thread and time.

  • @pharpester
    @pharpester Рік тому +1

    That’s very good, I used to get the ends pulling apart. Do you put an extra material on the inside of the French cleat so you can’t see through to the foam?

    • @oldschoolautoupholstery
      @oldschoolautoupholstery  Рік тому +1

      Hello Pharpester, We've all been there. Learning is doing. There is no need to add a backing material of the French stitch if your machine thread tension is tight enough. Please keep liking and watching!

  • @deankay4434
    @deankay4434 Рік тому +3

    Is this the correct way to lock in the French seam? I will watch to next 2 videos but I just did catch a "Definite Yes" in the video. I diagnose and fix them but can sew often. But based upon my past experience this looks like a clever way of getting it done with increasing thickness or hoping the next panels stitch will catch it. Thanks! To the point with good info.
