---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tuck & Roll Pleats were mostly used in old carriages and cars, but nowadays this design is still 'in vogue' and has been adopted for some auto upholstery interiors.
As you can see, this design is not so difficult to do, because foam material makes it easier to perform.
In old times, before having the foam in the market, upholsterers should have had to do it filling the channels with cotton, wool, horse hair, etc...that's why the name of 'tuck & roll' in upholstery.
These basics would help us a lot in a near future when we, together will be tackling 'real size upholstery projects'; free of charge videos on you tube.
I hope you find this video useful!

There are some people only dedicated to disqualify the work of someone without providing a minimum. I think that the right thing would be to give an opinion about what seems wrong or demonstrate with facts instead of 'clicking' in a nonsense way. I want to note all of these videos are free and aimed to people who only is really interested in learning something.

I love your videos, a great resource for learning. I hope that you haven't had a bunch of people trying to tear you down and criticize your work. You mentioned in a earlier comment that English is a second language and your embarrassed to speak on video, don't be. You should hear my Korean that is embarrassing. Which country are you from and what is your native language? Thanks for your videos they are great

[@Cechaflo]

First, thanks for watching these mute videos(lol)! Regarding your question, as my English speaking is not so good I have opted for not to do it because I could cause confusion instead. But, I am not stopped...I'm training more each day to improve my English learning. Besides, to my videos I use a 'visual method'. The interested person would learn just by watching. Many people have found this method effective. I am located in Mexico and my native language is Spanish. You are welcome anytime!

[@goldridgedesign9069]

Cechaflo I like the mute videos they are great, and easy to understand

Balbino de Jesus Ditto.

[@eevanoir197]

good trick with the foam - impressed with it all

[@PhelisaG]

Great video this is the simplest way that I have seen this being done. I will definitely try it out

[@kenhiester3396]

Your vids are very informative and knowledgeable. Please keep making them 😀

[@gulfsurfco]

Great instructional video. You are indeed a talented craftsman.

[@isabelbonilla2193]

Justo lo que estaba buscando. Muy informativo, gracias!

[@sandrovera9726]

Excelente video, muchas gracias por compartirlo, seguiré pendiente de sus videos

[@GregsGarage]

Catching up on a few techniques before I start sewing tonight!

[@Cechaflo]

I wish you the best with your upholstery project! If you are thinking in tuck & roll for your project remind you it is advisable to boxing with piping trim all around. If any suggestion, please, feel free to ask us.

[@tims6325]

Don't listen to the ass hats, I find your videos informative and entertaining. Please don't stop making them

[@Cechaflo]

Thanks for kind remarks!

[@CaptainBash737]

These videos are really helpful. Thank you for sharing your skill. I'm learning to upholster so I can work on our family project cars and you're showing me just whet I need to know. Brilliant.

[@Cechaflo]

+Barry Jones I'm so happy the videos are useful! ...most of these videos are basics that would be of great help to perform real upholstery projects in a near future. If you like this design, try to use a 'high density foam' to preserve the shape of the pleats for a long time...maybe, you want to use the traditional tuck'n roll materials cotton, horse hair, etc.

[@juanrivas6649]

Muchas gracias Maestro de veras Gracias cuidese Y muchas gracias Por su paciencia

[@Cechaflo]

Todo bien, Juan. Cuídese mucho también.

[@pdanker1]

Cechaflo, Great tutorials. I have an 11 video series on a boat cushions. Started this 1 and 1/2 years ago as hobby. I currently do boat cushions and bimini tops. I learned from videos on KZbin. Your videos have given me an added insight into things I do and things that are too difficult for me to tackle at this point in time.I do my work for free and charge for materials, everything I do is 100% better than what I started with and my clients are always happy... Some projects I do are perfect (not like yours) and others have flaws that only you and I would see....lol !! pdanker1, Jules Danker...

[@Cechaflo]

Jules Danker Hi Jules, Great! you have found these videos useful...I think to this point of your upholstery learning process, have realized that everything is summarized in some sewings/trims: 1. The most important and basic sewing, 'the blind sewing' as it name says, used to close the pieces of our project. 2. 'flat-felled/oversewing stitches used to decorate and reinforce on top of material. 3. 'French seams/double stitches' o top, mostly used as decorative and should be reinforced with a backing on the reverse. 4. 'Welting/Piping' used to decorate and reinforce the edges of our projects. 5. 'The binding', a very useful 'trim' to give the finish to the edges of our project. Besides, we find the 'channels with on-top sewing ' and 'channels with inside-hidden sewing'(like the one of this video) Furthermore, it is important to take into account the sewing machine/tools and the materials. Check these links for 'marine vinyl and 'marine thread': www.dltcorporation.com/SearchResults.asp?Search=marine+vinyl (it has warehouses in Michigan, Illinois, Wisconsin, Kentucky) www.albrightssupply.com/category-s/1895.htm (the main warehouse is located in Corinth, Mississippi www.superiorthreads.com/shop/category/?q=marine+thread This an interesting and useful forum to get in: www.thehogring.com/auto-upholstery-forum/

[@stephenbarnes5341]

Great video as usual, I have just bought a sewing machine and some vinyl to make my own car seat covers using this technique for the center panels. Would you use a french stitch to join this to the surrounding unpleated vinyl on sides of seats?

[@normanddoucet2232]

I have been a Craftsman for 47 years, what he is doing is called channeling. Tuck and Roll is sewn on scrim foam

[@lenarich3403]

I was researching how to do a similar technique and watching this simplified the process for me -- easier than I thought it would be for this tuck and roll process. Beautifully done! New subscriber -- thank you so much for sharing! :)

Great work

[@donfranzini100]

Nice job....I've had pen bleed thru the material and stain the top side .. so I don't use or anymore... also to prevent thread jam I see the piece off onto a scrap of different material

[@Cechaflo]

halojump123 ...Thanks for watching my video and I hope you find it useful!

[@fransbeckers4352]

Cechaflo I just started upholstery to be able to do my own classics that I restore myself. Youd videos are exactly what I neef to do it right. Thank hou for the videos and your invested time!

[@Cechaflo]

Hi frans, I'm so glad the videos are useful! You are welcome anytime!

[@bocuracao9]

Great! Thanks

[@Cechaflo]

Bo Lindgren Thanks for watching!...this design would look nicer with thicker foams.

[@kenhiester3396]

on the test piece could The roll be tightened up slightly to give it a more rounded appearance?

[@keithbrouwer7212]

Hi I live in Balaton mn USA. I am making my own door panels with 1/8" pvc panel board. What is the fabric on the backing? Can I use the all purpose glue to attach the finished vinyl upholstery to the panel board?

[@nasmatkharif9999]

عمل متقن ماشاء الله عليك

[@roaddefined]

Great video, will have to try this out! Do you glue the vinyl to the foam after?

[@Cechaflo]

It is not necessary to glue the vinyl to the foam. In case of doing a vehicle seat with this design it is advisable the use of piping to join the edges.

[@boothcovers3766]

Do you prefer a PFAFF 1245 over the JUKI 1541s if you had a choice? I like your machine in the videos Sir. Thank you for all of your wonderful and educational videos. You are a true master at this craft.

[@Cechaflo]

+Booth Covers I'd choose the new version pfaff 1245, 8 mm stitch length, original, made in Germany . The Juki dnu 1541s is also a very powerful and good sewing machine; it has a 9 mm stitch length and a jumbo bobbin also...supposedly, these machines are japanese but if I'm right are manufactured in China. The same happens with some pfaff 1245 which are manufactured in China also...they do not have the embossed serial number plate in the back...they have a sticker instead. My sewing machine is a pfaff 1245-706/47, 'old version', original, 6 mm stitch lenght and standard or short bobbin. Thanks for following me on you tube!

[@jesusdavidtello2534]

Exelente gracias por compartir tu experiencia ...Q tipo de máquina es esa ???

[@Cechaflo]

¡Muchas gracias por ver este video! La máquina de coser es industrial de marca Pfaff 1245-706/47

[@bekobeko1001]

Great video! Thank you so much for the lesson. But question what kind of fabric was on the bottom part of the foam?

[@Cechaflo]

Tiffany Berg Thanks for watching my videos! ...The fabric is a kind of 'muslin cloth'...it is also called 'manta'...it is found on sugar/flour sacks.

thank you for your videos .can you tell me is the singer 196k205 good for doing this job.thank you eddie

[@Cechaflo]

Hello Eddie, The machine you are asking about is not the ideal to do upholstery, but you can easily do the job I am showing in the video.

[@Immigranteddie]

+Cechaflo thank you I will look for a better one for upholstery.

[@shainashahid2452]

Bahut accha work good babi

[@juanrivas6649]

Maestro cree que Yo podria usar este Estilo que hace usted Para los asientos de Mercedes benz 1981 Espero su respuesta Tenga un buen dia y Dios lo vendiga

[@Cechaflo]

Estimado Juan, Si se podría usar este diseño para el MBenz. Trate de usar hule espuma de densidad media, para que armen bien los gajos. Este diseño va con el 'vivo' (piping) por todo el borde para que la funda se forme mejor a la hora de ponerla. Trate que no se estire el borde de los gajos a la hora de coser la pieza lateral que da vuelta.

[@Immigranteddie]

hi is the singer 331k5 a good machine for this .thank you Eddie

[@Cechaflo]

Hello Eddie,Yes, that machine is very powerful to sew this design and more. Thanks for watching these videos!

[@Cechaflo]

I don't know if there is a binding or zipper feet for a consew sewing machine, sorry.

Regularmente, estos diseños se deben coser con 'vivo' alrededor de los bordes.

[@Cechaflo]

Usually, this design goes with piping all around.

[@jesshothersall]

I would have liked it much better with a spoken dialogue as well, though the video is informative

[@Cechaflo]

I'll do that in a near future. I'm practicing more my English speaking. It's not my language, and I'm still afraid of talking or being ridiculous, sorry.

You can't be ridiculous as you're a gifted craftsman, so we are all ears to learn better. The more you do it, the easier it will get. You can practice on us, because we are already fans of yours :)
