    Amazing! This was the best auto seat repair I've ever seen hand's down. And as impressive as any cosmetic repair I've seen on anything. Period. If that was my car, between getting rid of the eyesore and preventing further tearing, I'd be glad to pay someone $100. to fix it like that. That's pretty good money for 15 mins. of work.

    Very nice. I have been doing these repairs for 20 years without ever being taught. I will adopt this method into my repairs now. It’s never too late to learn a new skill.

    I had a split seam (about 3 inches) in the cloth driver's seat of my IROC-Z Camaro. It was at the rear where the seat fabric meets the harder carpet type material. I was going to just try to do a normal single needle stitch to try and repair it, but when I started, I could see that it was just going to be ugly. I found this video on a search and I am very glad that I did. It took a few minutes to understand the technique, but in about a half hour, I had sewn the seam with the two needle method and it's totally invisible. I have been sitting on it for several weeks now and the seam is holding up well. Thank you very much for showing this technique, I'll likely use it again.

    Outstanding!!! I love the story, because back when you were educating people then, as you so graciously have done so today for a guy like me, eager to gain the valuable knowledge from guys like you that have had years of experience and are respected masters magicians as your repairs really vanish.
    What is so impressive and revelatory about your story,
    is that you must have been a young man with a lot of knowledge in this field to do seminar's training other intelligent people.
    For you to have an open mind, to explore another way to make it work and apply it to improve on the techniques being taught by you at that time, for others to improve their skill set and still today share that with the Universe, is the kind of thing, that for at least a moment, gives me something positive in a world that can be by negative deconstructionism and all that is beautifully tragic hurled in our direction.
    When the good of someone's actions can make all that disappear like "Double Blind Stitch"
    The humanity felt reminds me of that which in nature, sublime.
    I'm just starting out doing some repairing and sewing.
    It took me a long time, but I finally I got an industrial cylindrical arm walking foot sewing machine w/servo motor and I added a 3-6-9" pulley speed reducer, that I just finished putting together in my shed.
    I made a seat cover for a friend in exchange for some materials.
    I told the Manager of the Trailer Park I live at about my seat cover project , when he got excited and ask if I could repair his driver seat bottom in his Navigator.
    I went to look at it the next day, but prior to that I researched how the pros do it and I was shocked at how evolved it was and the mess of wiring just to put a new cover on it.
    When we met up, I said how I saw how they replaced the cover and how involved it was to remove the seats....
    " Seats!!!, We're not removing any seats!!!"
    He said,
    " I was thinking Patches or something".
    I left thinking what the heck did I get myself involved in and I was going to refer him to some pretty good seat cover sites online.
    I felt kind of sad and helpless, when he said patches, I was thinking how this could be disastrous.
    When I decided probe into how to repair seat cover rips, as apposed to sewing a new seat cover.
    In one of your videos you had mentioned the "double blind stitch". I found the video and studied it, watching you do it and that gave me the confidence and inspiration to achieve what I was sure was impossible.
    From your story back then to today, I thought, wow!!! What a journey that little bit of knowledge has gone through, that you passed onto me as a solution.
    I am grateful to you and your teachings, that make this world better.
    I wonder how many things have been forgotten like the civilizations that have come and gone.
    We are truly fortunate to live at a time in which we can learn nearly anything so quickly.
    I try to imagine~What if I was born in another period in time, like the day's of the Coliseum and Gladiator's...
    "Let's go Chavez, your fighting next, with three hungry Lions and a man eating Gorilla riding on a crocodile~ Your Doctor's notes chiseled on toilet papyrus are exhausted- You have one solution~ RUN!!!"
    Your Awesome!!!
    Thank You.
    Sincerely,
    Randy Chavez

    This is a great tutorial and you make it look so easy to learn! I tried practicing on an armchair in our home that has a tear and it was tough going because of the nubby fabric. I had a hard time seeing where to put the needle back through the hole. Question regarding the thread you used. I bought Gutterman upholstery thread which is strong but doesn't look as thick as yours. What type or # thread did you use? How long of a length of thread do you need to work like that? I may have had mine too short. Also as someone that embroiders, I had a tough time using the curved needles. They kept slipping out of my hands. Would this technique work with straight needles? I appreciate your comments and help.

      The original thread doesn't matter. We must use hand sewing thread because of the forces involved in pulling the material together. Color doesn't matter if we can do a good enough job to truly make it a blind stitch. Thanks
