This video mainly shows how useful the special piping foot is to make double stitches with a piping trim in the center. This new prototype makes double stitching of 9/16" of an inch, Slightly wider than the previous one I showed in a former video.
This time the demonstration is that this foot is not only useful for straight edges but curved edges too.
As we can see this is only a sample or test done on one side bolster of a car foam base.
Besides, I have not forgotten to share with you my interested users several upholstery tips.
The first is the use of molds to ease the marking, cutting, and sewing process. These procedures are taught in our courses and involve and are applied for different shapes of car seats.
The second tip is how a foamed panel is prepared by doing a double sewing on the panel edges. As shown before in previous videos, as our panels are foamed, it is necessary to flatten their edges. This process makes sewing easier.
A third tip also shown in a previous video is how to reduce the bulky part of a sewing junction considering this would be the flap that is turned over to oversewing on top.
A fourth tip I am sharing with you is how the piping/welting strip is made by using a regular upholstery glue.
In a previous youtube video I have shown how to attach a piping strip directly to vinyl edges at one go. This method is used this time.
For the piping attaching at one go I have used a homemade piping foot. I made it out of a double leg standard foot. It works out the same as the other OEM piping foot.
Let's not forget to consider the stretch side of vinyl material (the same with leather) to cut the required panels. It helps to ease the sewing and fitting process.
Another important tip it is included in the video is how to approach convex portions. As these panels are foamed (4 mm thick foam material) my advice is glue the edges down in place. As you can see in the video the thin foam is first shaped then the vinyl piece is shaped and glued down over. It is much better to spray glue over this whole panel. This technique works out for different convex areas to avoid folds or creases.
I hope you find useful information in this video. Besides, inspiration to perform your own upholstery projects!

Amo seus ensinamentos, aprendo bastante.. muito obrigada.
Спасибо, это сделано великолепно ))
great job
Excelente video mi amigo, te felicito 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 un trabajo impecable. Abrazo GRANDE 🍷
Es solo una muestra para demostrar que el pié de presión acanalado sirve para bordes rectos y curvos. ua-cam.com/video/ENPH2CTV9xo/v-deo.html
Ya con esta prueba iré con un tornero para que me fabrique uno impecable en acero.
En este video también compartimos varios tips muy útiles en tapicería. Uno que considero importante es cuando se espuman los paneles. El de parte cóncava se recomienda pegarlo sobre la espuma base para que se adapte a su forma. Lo ideal es pegar el vinil a la espuma con pegamento en spray. Lo mostraré mas adelante en un tema de partes cóncavas y convexas.
Além de excelente profissional, seus vídeo são muito bem elaborados... não deixando nenhuma dúvida para o expectador! Muito obrigado!
It is just a simple sample but it is full of tips I am sharing. Do not forget to read the video description.
Hello, I can I speak with you?
Great work 👍 Weiter so 👍 Thank you so much 👍
An education video though. Several useful upholstery tips included. It is also a sample test for the handmade foot I did for these stitches by using a single needle sewing machine.ua-cam.com/video/ENPH2CTV9xo/v-deo.html
These decorative twin stitches are used on real car seats. The inspiration came from a Hog Ring Forum picture: www.thehogring.com/2012/06/06/photo-french-seam-piping/
Thanks for watching!
Thank you
Здравствуйте. Постеснялся я пройти мимо этого видео так как много интересного . Смотрю видео и возникает вопрос ,смотрю дальше и вижу ответ! Здоровья вам !
so schön !!!!
Que bello trabajo!!! Estaría horas mirando este video!!! Que tipo de máquina me Recomendaría???gracias
Você é um profissional acima da média, na verdade ainda não vi nenhum profissional tão bom como você, há quanto tempo você trabalha com estofados?
I started out in the late seventies.
Great 👍
Señor cechaflo, le hago una consulta, por casualidad, usted tuvo algún problema o accidente en el dedo índice de su mano derecha? He notado que siempre lo lleva levantado y casi no lo usa en un oficio en donde se sobreentiende que es una necesidad tener las manos en óptimas condiciones!!!. Ya lo creo que usted es un verdadero maestro y no soy ningún iluminado al notarlo pero si usted aún así lo hace tan bien, y con una lesión en su mano, es aun mas prodigioso su talento!!!... Por eso le pregunto!!! Realmente con profunda admiración y respeto!!! Lo saludo desde Argentina
Deasfortunadamente tuve una lesión en ese dedo índice. No fue en tapicería. Fué de mecánica. Es un trabajo adicional que conozco y es de reparación de maquinaria hidraúlica de servicio pesado.
Is that a “cording” foot you use for the final French seam? . Very nicely done . Also very a that headliner foam you use for the under layer.? Thanks 🙏🏻
It is a rough sample I made to run over the piping cord.

Спасибо за видио урок! Скажите пожалуйста, как называется белая лента? Спасибо... Восхищение вашей работой! Вместе с вами шила) очень понравилась лапка!!
I assume you are referring to the white backing strip. It is just a thin strip of vinyl. I cut it 1/2" of an inch wide.
ua-cam.com/video/xxEBaHlH-4w/v-deo.htmlsi=KRi_6916ZB1paLlq&t=763
Thank you for sharing your expertise. I would like to know what size thread you are using, what size needle and what stitch length. Your work is beautiful! TY
Thin thread 92 size to sew the pieces together (closing sewing) A thicker thread 138 for the decorative stitches on top.
18 needle size for the closing sewing and 22 needle size for the top stitches.
For the closing sewing 3 mm long stitches. For the stitches on top 6 mm long.

Beautiful job! Reminds me of my brothers old seats we had made many years ago.
Why is it not the entire front side? Why is it covering half of the front side?
It is a sample to test if the handmade foot I show in a previous video works well:

Besides it is an educational video to upholstery students to understand how this design would be approached by using a single needle, flat table sewing machine.
The inspiration came from a Hog Ring Forum picture.

Just do it with the material a lot of fanning around
Maestro !? Que material usa para la franja del reverso ? Eso es lino ?
Me encanto como le quedo !
Saludos desde Buenos Aires !
Para el refuerzo usé un vinyl mas delgado estirable. Se cortó en ese sentido a lo largo de la tira para formar la parte curva mas fácilmente.
What type of material is used for the french seam backing (on the back side of the seam)?
There are special thin backing strips for sale. Stiff for straight seams and elastic for curved edges.
I used a thin stretch vinyl for the seam backing. I cut the strip breadthwise along the stretch direction. It helps to give shape to rounded edges.

Use guides to improve your sewing.
ua-cam.com/video/8AT5qDjwMsY/v-deo.html
You can get them on internet: Amazon, Ebay, etc.
www.amazon.com/CKPSMS-Brand-Left-Spring-Side-4MM/dp/B07QZH42W1?th=1
What do you call the strip under the seem? And what material is best thank you
It is a binding strip placed on the reverse side. Those strips are sold in roll and ready for sale on some upholstery suppliers. In case of not getting it, we can do it by cutting strips of thin vinyl. The strip on the video looks white because it is the reverse side of the vinyl.
@@Cechaflo thank you very much
I see that you use a Pfaff sewing machine, so I suppose you prefer Pfaff to other brands. Is there anything in particular that stands out for the Pfaff above others, say, Juki or Consew or Adler? Thank you!
I got this old machine still in good shape by chance. Consew, Juki, etc. in my opinion are at the same level. Perhaps I went for the Pfaff machine because my uncle who is also a car upholsterer bought a Pfaff 335, cylinder bed sewing machine around 60 years ago and it is still working out.
I've used Pfaff, consew and Adler. They are all good machines I prefer alder only because I own an Adler that I've had for 8 years.
I got the machine from an old boss and he got the machine from his dad. It's an old machine and still running strong. But as I said nothing wrong with consew or pfaff.
Use spray adhesive

Hello. What for did you make stitches at the edges of material?
French Seam piping is used on car seats.
www.thehogring.com/2012/06/06/photo-french-seam-piping/
As mentioned in the description this is a sample on how to approach these double stitches can be done by using a single needle sewing machine.
Most of these videos are mostly devoted to upholstery students.
@@Cechaflo Sorry. No, i mean what for did stitch foam to material at the edges. Because you anyway will stitch at the center (1cm)
@@ny4583 No worries. I suppose you are referring to the previous second sewing I did at a distance of 8 mm. The first one was done at the very edge.It helps a lot to flatten the foamed edges to ease the final sewing process (1 cm from the edge). ua-cam.com/video/KelUBPZCQzg/v-deo.html
@@ny4583 An overlock sewing machine replaces the procedure I show that is of flattening the edges. The LeatherSeats' car trimmer masterfully performs this process.ua-cam.com/video/C3tcrZNKRCc/v-deo.html
@@Cechaflo i mean at the very edge stitching(1or 2mm from edge). Thank you i understood. I didn't try it because it is too much job. Now i will try, if it really helps i will stitch always like you. Thank you very much.
hola Maestro, tengo un problema con la 1245 en reverse creo que hago algo mal, muchas veces en reverse encuentro 3 hilos , 2 de arriba da top hilo , aveces se rompe la aguja, donde me equivoque?
hello Maestro, I have a problem with the 1245 in reverse I think I make something wrong, often in reverse I find 3 thread wich 2 from the top sometimes it breaks needle, where am I wrong?
Trying to figure it out. Check first (the machine turned off and moving it by hand) if the needle makes stitches (with no thread) the same distance frontwards and backwards. When the reverse lever is lifted the moving is backwards and the needle point should meet the same holes made to the front.
Verify if the machine is on time. No fast nor slow.
@@Cechaflo Thanks . i have checked then in the normal rotation look like perfect . when i hold reverse needle bar and small foot moving a litle bit to thr front and timing is not correct ..hook arrive too early ..isnt that weird?
@@maxtur6982 Trying to figure it out with no success, yet.
You will find three threads when you stop the needle before the lockstitch is completed. Make sure that the needle has bottomed out and begun it's up stroke before you stop. Then you should only pull out a single top thread and a single bottom thread.
Buenas esas patas que utiliza donde se pueden comprar . Gracias
Por internet (Amazon, Ebay, etc.) venden muchas patas para las máquinas de coser, pero no he visto hasta ahora una para el diseño que muestro en el video.
Un tornero lo puede fabricar.
@@Cechaflo gracias
Im good upholstery work for me your day off work
Please do upholstery work in my school or Anna wood work I’m do
красота
Good work done with the cheapest awful material without any comfort to sit on especially in hot summer time.
As this video is only educational and its main purpuse is to teach some upholstery techniques not worth using a luxiry material, could also notice the same foam cushion is used on several previous videos, that's what I have at hand for the demonstrations.
What fabric do you use to make the pattern?
I suppose you are referring to the blue automotive vinyl I am using for the panels. Automotive yellow vinyl for the piping/welting strip.
The foamed fabric(backing) is a 4 mm thick headliner material. The backing strip to reinforce the french seams is also automotive stretch vinyl but slightly thinner. I put it on its reverse.
@@Cechaflo no the white stuff you pin to the foam
@@my95buick ua-cam.com/video/xxEBaHlH-4w/v-deo.html I misunderstood, sorry. That material is cardstockpaper used to make the patterns. A drawing is done on the foam base, then this paper is attached in order to get the molds.
These procedures are the same taught in our basic courses and also shown in several youtube videos.

The same molding technique is applied on different car seat designs. ua-cam.com/video/pHjUuOPldH4/v-deo.html
@@Cechaflo OK thanks. I always assumed it was a type of fabric
@@my95buick It looks like though.
Dove la trovo la bordatura e la tubazione .grazie
Upholstery stores sell these products.
Do not glue your panels to the foam, if your location marks all align up the cover will pull out perfectly given the shape. Glued panels cannot be steamed or heated as you will reset the glue.
👍👍🙏🙏👍👍
ما هو قياس الخيط الذي تخيط به
Thin standard upholstery thread 92 size to join pieces. 138 hread size for decorative top stitches.

amigo,usted sabe lo que se hace, pero no entiendo como no se ve sacar la simetria del asiento,demasiada parafernalia para coser tantas piezas,el vivo nunca es pegado en raras excepciones,y no se ve terminado el asiento al completo en el video,segun veo mucho tiempo necesita para hacernun trabajo tan laborioso como ese,si lo cobran bien y se lo pagan perfecto,aun asi es buen trabajo
اسلام علیکم سر میں بھی پاکستانی ہوں اور یہ گاڑیوں کی سٹیچنگ دبئی میں کر رہا ہوں مجھے آپ کنٹری میں ویزا مل جائے گا
Desde Argentina!! Muchísimas gracias!! Maestro!!
Estas costuras decorativas se usan en algunos asientos de carro. Regularmente usan una máquina de poste con dos agujas. El pié de presión es especial para que se adapte a las dos agujas y a la forma del vivo.
Un tornero curioso es capáz de hacer estas patas. La fresadora es la máquina que lo hace.
Rellené con soldadura un pié de presion haciéndolo mas ancho y le hice una canal para que corra el vivo. En este video hago la prueba para saber si trabaja bien en recta y en curvas. El paso siguiente sería ir con un tornero y solcitarle que me fabrique una pata igual, a la perfección en acero. ua-cam.com/video/ENPH2CTV9xo/v-deo.html
La inspiración viene de una foto que me llamó la atención en el Hog Ring Forum de USA: www.thehogring.com/2012/06/06/photo-french-seam-piping/
¡Muchas gracias por ver estos videos!
