Upholstery Method - HOW TO MAKE A BOXED AND WELTED CUSHION FOR UPHOLSTERY

[@deenibeeniable]

my mom was a seamstress & milliner. When she taught me to sew she insisted that the inside be as beautiful as the outside. This was a pleasure to watch.

[@jeanettepoe374]

I added "rope binding" to a twin bed mattress cover using solarium fabric using my commercial juki sewing machine. I used took apart old cover and used it as a pattern exactly. I noticed the fabric puckered a little as I was going along applying the cording but didn't think any thing of it and when I was attaching the sides now, Im about six inches shorter at the end on the main piece. what caused this?

[@tracybingham7739]

@@jeanettepoe374did you add in your seam allowances and the extra fabric needed to cover the cording?

[@claremcinerney3209]

Nice video and helpful navigation but disappointed that it didn't show how to do the zipper panel - that's the trickiest bit!!😅

[@ritaalbert2159]

@@claremcinerney3209 I agree

[@Agenda21Truth1]

The people at Bassett could learn a thing or two about that😉

Lovely clear photography. No waffle. Straight into it. Just what I love when I want instructions. Thanks!

[@betsybarry-gath4708]

Agreed! Thank you for being so clear.

Excellent! Thank you.

This is a blast from the past. Growing up my father had a furniture shop. He made bedroom sets and living room/den sets. From start to finish, he did everything. My oldest sister was given a bedroom set and a living room set when she moved out. (She is much older than I am.) She had both sets, for 30 years. The bedroom set still looked brand new. And there was not even a loose thread on the living room set and yes, the fabric was very outdated!!! Products that are made with quality in mind, truly does last. Thank you for the video. I never had any clue on how he sewed the cushions.

[@FayreeenAarow]

Truly, your sister has a treasure, and evidently she knows it because she took care of it, and treasured it!❤ as far as the outdated, upholstery fabric. That’s all right it takes her outdated lol vintage is also outdated.😊 she’s smart for not changing a thing on her furniture. And God bless your heart. Evidently you like me you got left behind and without.😢 i’m sorry. But maybe you could learn how to do. Upholstery pick up some old pieces and start your own collection of antique furniture.♥️ Good luck, dear. Have fun.😃❤️❤️❤️

[@margaretmone1131]

I wish I found this before I finished a set of boxed pillow cases. Most of my corners are puckered together or pinched. The way you explained how to sew around corners was soooo good! I’ll be doing that in future.

[@mjmeara327]

Your worksheet is brilliant!

[@larrim9173]

Thank you for your straightforward tutorial! I've successfully completed a boxed cushion, because of your excellent instructions.

[@mumtrubb916]

I’ve been struggling to find a tutorial to re-cover camper van cushions for months … after many failed attempts and trying to make things fit I stumbled upon this little gem !!!!! Very well explained.. measuring was precise and at the end there is that little bit of wiggle for adjustments… Absolutely fantastic… I’m no seamstress but this was a joy to sew along too … Thank You 🙏 😊

[@vikinglore1066]

Having been in the industry for 30 years even I found this to be interesting how different upholstery people do the same operations differently. Well done!

[@paulascott5701]

Thank you so much for this. You are a very good teacher! Thank you for showing us how this is done in the most clear way possible. Thank you for not trying to be cute and entertaining and have the focus on yourself. Though in not doing that, you come across as likable. 🙂

[@carolyncruse3744]

One the easiest tutorials I've been able to follow along with and see what you're doing, thank you.

[@kozmosis3486]

Its very satisfying to watch an expert work and create something both beautiful and useful. You explain things perfectly also. Thanks for sharing with us!

[@sandys8552]

So glad I found your tutorial! I decided to reupholster the sofa in our motor home. This tutorial is excellent to boost my confidence that I can accomplish my project. Thank you for all the tips & tricks. Excellent video taping, could see all that you were doing.

[@MorgynFaye7]

So glad you made this video. Thanks for the worksheet it's so helpful!!!!!!

Wish I had watched your video first! Now I'll go and unsew my project an do it the right way. Thank you!

[@Fiona-Jim]

Great video! I've just sewn my 1st ever box cushion cover. I'm recovering my old cushions for my narrowboat dinette. Was very apprehensive about how to tackle this task. And found that your video explains it very well and after watching and breaking it down into steps managed my 1st one. I have a hobby sewing machine and managed to sew it all even with a quite thick upholstery fabric

[@maryharvey724]

So clean and fine. Thank you.

[@FayreeenAarow]

I am so thankful that I found your channel. I’m very interested in reupholstering a chair that I have, with your expertise and help. I’ll believe I can do it.!😊 I appreciate your channel so much and your generosity. Thank you♥️ keep them coming I have to subscribe.🤗

Best tutorial, so easily explained, clean cut and calming to watch ❤ I’m soon starting a sewing job at a warehouse for patio furniture and I know how to sew cushions but I’m so nervous and excited that I’m just looking up everything anyways to make sure I don’t miss anything 😅😂 your video definitely helped me feel better at ease🙏🏼thank you

Great video. I live near the White Cliffs of Dover in the UK. Just bought my first walking foot machine ( Jack H2) with servo control. It makes sewing box cushions a piece of cake.

I am replacing the cushion covers on my patio set for the first time and was looking for a visual demonstration to help me figure it out. Your video is one of the very best tutorials I have seen with clear instructions and fantastic camera angles. With your help I was able to see where I went wrong with my first attempt and have now successfully made my first cushion cover. Only 11 more to go. Thankyou!

Thank you for this video. I need to recover my patio furniture cushions. This is a big help.

BEST instructions specifically for the way the boxing is attached. I've torn my hair out (and many seams) following other videos that showed sewing the boxing in one continuous piece before sewing to front and back panels. The solution here is brilliant!

Thank you! This was amazingly helpful for us beginners! I wish I had found you at the start of my patio furniture project. The pain I could have saved myself, if I had you guidance at the beginning. New appreciative fan, Susan.

[@jelenazurajeva5668]

Thank you! Nice detail with a zipper pocket

[@sharonrimsza7960]

Wow! This video popped up on my KZbin feed and it is exactly what I need to do to a cushion for my husband. I just finished cutting the dense foam piece with my handheld electric meat/bread slicer. Works great for fish too. The zipper application is exactly what I needed to see. His old cushion and zipper were destroyed (parts missing) and was hard to determine exactly what it was so I started from scratch. All I need now is to go grab some ‘silk film’ the shop vac and get this done! Thank you!!!

WOW! This was a great video! I have recovered a few pieces of furniture, but I watched because I love some tips and tricks. Not to mention, I want your machine, lol, I just recovered a 50s round ottoman in fake alligator, it had 4 rings of welting. I have a welting foot, but for upholstery I use a Singer 201... it for sure doesn't have that fancy walking foot!

[@lisa-m-jennings]

What a fantastic video! Thank you so much for sharing this. I am about to attempt to recover some pieces of antique furniture I got second hand for little and nothing due to the shape it was in. It was exactly the style I wanted though and to buy it already reupholstered would have cost about 30k. I really appreciated how you addressed the thickness of the fabric with all those layers. I honestly was going to give up but when you said I could likely get away with using my home sewing machine with a thinner fabric I was so relieved to hear that. I am going to be using silk dupioni to re-cover the pieces as it will not get much use and is mostly decorative and that fabric is fairly thin. I am so excited to get my project underway now. Your clear instructions and all the information you shared has made me quite confident.
