Every time I've needed a solution to a problem I've encountered in making several roman blinds, Sailrite has provided it. I will stop wasting time searching other sources. Thank you again and again!
Thank you for another great video! I wanted to mention that you can use a rubber mallet or hammer with a piece of cloth for protection, to hammer down your bulk areas, it works great on those tough areas. Before & or after sewing
Thank you for giving knowledge freely! I have learned so much from your videos. Wish I could afford your beautiful walking foot industrial sewing machine! Unfortunately I stay in South Africa!
at 4:20 if you stop some millimeters before the edge, the corner will have a nice 'eye' like the end of a tie. i do this all the time for napkins and tablecloth
Very nice looking corner. I want to make 12 oz. canvas dust covers for my welding machines. I have no idea on how to make the 4 upper corners. The cover would be the same shape and slightly larger than the welder, which is about 16" tall by 14" by 24". There is, of course no bottom. I want to hem every raw edge and then sew in a strap handle on top. Where the top, and both side meet up for the corner is where I am totally inexperienced. Any help will be appreciated. Regards and thank you for the videos, Jerry
If you watch closely you’ll see the needle go past the mitered stitch. He switches to reverse to go back before the needle goes in and gets the needle in the correct position.
Great tip on this issue! But not to hijack this video with another topic I see you are sewing through the seamstick with no issues. Everything I try to remedy the thread breaking on my juki1508 when sewing through it including tension and needle size and everything in between does not fix it? Love my seamstick but wow it’s aggravating!
since canvas is heavier than normal cloth,... does this mean you use heavier thread also? And would you go over it more than once on the seams? I don't know but I'm interested in new skills like this because tents are emergency shelter. And that can help people when trouble comes. Thinking of making some things. People that make their own stuff and have their own skills always have an advantage also.
I forgot to mention that I am not sure of how to cut the pieces of fabric. Would I need stitching down all 4 corners and how do I make the top piece of fabric work?
It is possible, but the grommet will cut through the stitching. There is an alternate technique for folded corners that doesn’t require cutting the stitching. ua-cam.com/video/Qh--0qxIU2s/v-deo.html

1000th like! Thank you for making these videos, they are incredibly helpful.
I wish I had known this months ago!!! I need Sailrite University....
Thank you once again!! Grateful to be able to review this a project calls for mitered corners. (Ugh! Angle cuts twist my brain!!)
I'm glad you found the review helpful! Mitered corners can be tricky, but with practice, they'll become easier.
With some canvases I steam the corner briefly, this softens it and makes it easier to push the point out neatly.
That's a great tip! Thanks for sharing.
I appreciated the sound effects when measuring for the miter.

Thank you awesome video
Thank you!
How did you use the reversing lever to adjust the needle position?
If you watch closely you’ll see the needle go past the mitered stitch. He switches to reverse to go back before the needle goes in and gets the needle in the correct position.
Awesome, thank you

Muy buen video...

Somehow I feel like I just watched a manic trick.. This is an awesome vid!! Thank you
Thanks!
Is there a method for inside 90° corners?
That was a 90 degree corner. Am I missing something?
@@SailriteDIY those were outside 90° corners. Wondering if there is a method for inside corners.
is it safe to put a grommet right on a stitch?
The grommet would contain the cut part of the stitch.
1/4 inch cut is better than an 1/8th in this situation because then you can open the seam inside the corner.
Thank you for sharing that tip! It's always great to learn new techniques.

But here it is also impossible to insert a grommet in such a corner.
