Once more as part of our training I want to share one way to do French stitches by using a single needle sewing machine.
I want to stand out how useful the templates are to get a neat and precise cover. The technique of making templates is taught in our basic courses. The procedures are the same for simple and complex car seats.
The pieces in this sample are foamed with a 1/4" of an inch foam. As we know as a general rule the vinyl should be basted to the foam by pasting 'points of glue' all along the edges. But, there are a few exceptions when it is advisable to glue down the whole area of the panel. I mean in case of 'concave areas' to avoid a fluffy vinyl on it.
The idea is the application of a soft spraying glue. Just one thin coat and let it dry well.
Be careful! Do not apply excessive glue! Just a thin coat to shape the concave area.
If we apply excessive glue it would make creases very difficult to erase. This issue happens when we need to fold the panel for some reason.
Once again my recommendation is the use of attachments to improve and make our sewing process easier and more enjoyable.
If you carefully watch this video you will find several tips included in.
As mentioned above this is only a sample in half. The other side is the same.
I hope you find some inspiration to create your own upholstery projects!
