  • Vinyl seating fabric can be purchased with channeling that pre-manufactured, but it is typically sold in neutral colors and only in specific brand lines of vinyl fabric. It also comes only in standard width sizes. Learn how to sew your own blind-stitch channeling and you can use any color and brand of vinyl seating fabric you want to match your project demands. This video will first cover sewing an oversize pleated or channeling panel that you can trim to size after it is made. It will also show how to make a finished size pleated or channeling panel that has an equal size pleat from end to end for an exacting fit and look.
    If you prefer deeper depth channeling consider using the Tuck & Roll Channeling approach instead: • How to Sew Tuck & Roll...

    9:32 Great video and informative content!
    Have you tried lifting up the presser foot and sliding the fabric backwards or off to the side after stitching an individual pleat and then reengaging/lowering the presser foot back down to begin sewing the next pleat? Rather than consecutively cutting the thread after sewing every individual pleat? I find this method saves a bit of time, conserves thread, and helps maintains sewing cadence/tempo.
    A potential manufacturing efficiency gain that may be helpful 🙂

      Yes, I often do that same thing with many projects. However, this one was a very small sample piece (only 6 inches in height) and it would seem reasonable to do what you described on it since it was small. But most of these panels will be about 15 to 20 inches in height, at average, and pulling that much bobbin thread out for each pleat may diminish the quantity of the bobbin rather quickly, that is why we did not do as you describe. Great suggestion for small jobs!!!! Thanks!!!!

    Can you show the same concept, I'm guessing, so they are not just channels but boxes that remain puffy... quilted? Normally, I'd run straight stitches down and then turn to stitch lines the next direction. However, that first pleat stitching looks different. 😊

      @@SailriteDIY No, not exactly. I'm looking for the channeling that the cushioning is not just channels. They are more like quilted boxes. The channels show vertical stitching. But, I also would need the horizontal. This would be the whole top and not just a short 6" piece. I can beat describe it like a mattress top.

      @lada5876. I think you may try this video by Sailrite: “DIY Box Cushion: How to make a box Cushion” (sorry not sure how to link it here for you). Within this video they show you how to prepare part of vinyl for the seat with a “quilted” look. Hope it helps.

      @@mbheydrick8375 Thanks, I did look at those. It's close. I love @sailriteDIY videos so if anyone would know, it would be them. I'm making a mini mattress. You know the kind with a pillowtop... it's not just quilted, it's very puffy and plush set on top of a firmer mattress part, creating a one piece unit. Thanks for the info. It did get me a bit closer. I appreciate it.

    “Measuring device” ?? It’s called a ruler. There is also an incredible invention called a tape measure.

      Ah, the age-old battle between the ruler and the tape measure! Who will reign supreme? Well, it's all about personal preference and the task at hand. But hey, at least we have options to measure in style!
