It's not hard to add this accent to your projects.
Piping really gives your home decor and garment projects a professional finish. It's easy to make and easy to install, using the optional Piping Foot.
You can use either a purchased bias strip or cut your own strip of fabric. It can be either straight of grain or bias.
How To Install Piping
- Place your cording in the center of the fabric, and then wrap the fabric around it.
- With the Piping Foot on your machine, move the needle to a left position so it just barely clears the needle hole.
- Hand crank the needle to make sure it will safely clear the hole in the foot.
- Feed the encased cording into the groove on the underside of the foot.
- Choose a straight stitch and sew down the side of the encased cord to create your custom piping.
It's that easy.
