Absolutely priceless information and that magical vacuum process. Thank you for the machine sewing of the pad, such a time saver. You certainly made a newbie able to conquer a project.
Thank you for your kind words! I'm happy the sewing tips were a time saver for you.
I love my sailrite machine! My sewing and crafting possibilities are endless! My sewing projects turn out perfectly! ❤
Thank you for this. My mom just got a new mobility scooter, and now I can make her a nice seat pad for Mothers Day!
Now I know the best way to remove cushions when they need to be cleaned!
Excellent tutorial! I loved the idea of putting plastic over the foam and using suction to reduce it. I think that would be the most difficult part for me is inserting it inside. Thank you.
Thank you so much for this awesome tutorial!
I bought the Dura Skrim and basting tape to make my blue chair pads. Pipping was added as well. Awesome results! Thanks for making a detailed and informative tutorial.
Fabulous !!! You make it so easy to do it !!

Thanks!
Looks very nicel I would love to have the proper sewing machinel This is my next projectl
This video has the clearest and easiest instructions I have ever seen for a chair pad. The photography is amazing. I am wondering, though, if there is a way to make this chair pad with a zipper closure in the back, so that it is removable for washing, if using a cotton fabric. Do you have instructions or suggestions for how to do a zipper closure? Is there a way for this to be done before the piping is inserted, or the front and back sewn together?Thank you so much for making these videos.
for something this thin, prewash the material, make the cushion, and then just wash the whole thing. For thicker cushions, Sailrite has videos how to make cushions with zippers. There's a zipper video alone that I use for reference when making cushions.

I really appreciate your thorough tutorials, I feel like I can tackle anything. I am using a 1 inch high density foam. The dining chairs are not contoured, they have square corners. Should I adapt the pattern?
No, I would not for such a thin foam.
Great video! I know it was some time ago but I would love to ask a question (first time attempting this). When sewing the top pattern to the bottom pattern (with the piping sandwiched in between) and the sewn in piping thread is visable - do you sew on top of, to the inside of, or to the outside of that already sewn piping thread 'guide'. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!
That basting tape is totally cheating! 😜
I have a question. I'm in the process of recovering the fabric on my padded kitchen chair seats, but one of the pieces of foam is rippled. Is there a way to get this wrinkle out or should I just buy new foam? Thanks!
question about the double sided basting tape. I have used that before and the glue from it clogged up my sewing needle. How did you aboid that.? are some brands better than others?
If the chairs seat is deeper than yours in video, how it changes sew pattern, trying avoid upper wrinkles? Thanks
Buenas tardes soy de Mexico algun teléfono para solicitar información de una maquina
I’m going to try this! Great tutorial. How many yards of the material is needed to make 4 pads?
Typically the chairs are about 15" deep, it that is true for yours then you only need 2 yards of a 54" wide fabric tom make your 4 pads.
Sailrite thank you!
Thanks for sharing. What kind of standard foot you are using? I am using a desk top sewing machine. Foots are very limited. I am thinking of buying a industrial machine like yours.
Is this machine washable? Especially with the silk film?
It would have been so helpful if you had also told me the size of the finished pillow and the amount of material you had used.
Ok i have cute out four pieces of bed foam to match my seats my question is how do I close it up and put tires on it to keep it good and I can take them off and wash them when I need to
If you want to take the covers off and wash them you will need to install a zipper opening in the cover.
If I use one and a half inch thick foam, do I just add a half an inch to your seam allowance? It would then be one and a quarter inch.
Correct, that should work fine.
I would like to use a walking foot to sew up the opening instead of doing it by hand. Do all machines have the same name of walking foot? I have not used my walking foot before.
Eric, my whole family is fairly... uhm... not lightweight! I'm concerned that a 1" foam would instantly bottom-out with us, even in extra-firm. A.) Is there a practical weight limit for this 1" foam? And B.) Could the same type of cushion be made with 2" foam, instead? (Or, would that require boxing?)
The 1" HD foam will last for years, even if used daily by stocky people, like myself. But your question is a matter of comfort and softness rather than longevity. So, would a 2" foam provide more comfort, yes it would. However, is you use a 2" High Density foam you will have to add a boxing, it it simply too thick of a foam to be sewn with two plates as shown in this video.
@@SailriteDIY Thanks for the info!
What sewing machine are you using?
We are using the Sailrite Ultrafeed LS-1 at this link: www.sailrite.com/Sewing-Machines/Portable-Heavy-Duty-Sewing-Machines/Ultrafeed-LS-1-Sewing-Machine
Great instructions, however I think I'll just buy my chair pads.
Can you wash (put it in the wash machine) this chair pad?
Yes, since the fabric is breathable we could wash this cushions and air dry it. The foam will eventually dry out in about a days time on the line.
@@SailriteDIY Thank you very much!
What's the brand of the sewing machine?
We use the Sailrite Ultrafeed LS-1 found here: www.sailrite.com/Sewing-Machines/Portable-Heavy-Duty-Sewing-Machines/Ultrafeed-LS-1-Sewing-Machine
I just made a chair pad and my issue was that the stitches from the fabric covered piping showed up when I put the whole assembly together. I had to sew over everything on both side to make sure I sewed close enough to the piping so the stitches didnt show. Is there a trick to getting it right when sewing the whole assembly together ?
The trick to making piping that does not show the stitch that was created when you make the piping is to feed the piping into the cording foot so the stitch is about 1/8" or so away from the piping. If using the Sailrite Ultrafeed LSZ simply use the "Left, Center, Right" lever to move the stitch away from the piping (when making your own piping). Then after the piping is made you now move the stitch that sews all the finial assembly together closer to the piping. In doing this you will never see those stitches that were made when making or sewing the piping to the first plate, as they are about 1/8" away from the cording. The only stitch close to the cording secures the whole assembly. I hope this helps.
비닐 안꺼냄?
I can't imagine this guy ever getting mad
Rotary cutter is so tiny in his hand
This can never be washed 😅
It can be spot cleaned or you can sew in a zipper.
That suction thing was so male! No offence ;)). Why do it by hand id you can do it by machine? I wonder if the silk plastic layer is necessary or is it just good for sucking out the air?
