Topstitching: Mastering Thread End Tie-Offs
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 28 июн 2024
- Learn how to properly tie off the start and end points of your thread when topstitching with this easy tutorial. A topstitch on a cushion not only looks good, but it helps to strengthen the seam and also keeps the seam allowance on the top plate or side (boxing) of your cushion for a smoother looking edge seam. If you want a more professional looking cushion consider tying off the start and stop point threads of your topstitch instead of reversing. This give the topstitch a continuous looking stitch, no reversing, that does not have a visible start or end point. Whether you're a beginner or experienced sewer, these tips will help you achieve a clean and professional looking finish on all your sewing projects. Watch now and improve your topstitching game!

I always wondered how this is done when I looked around in car's interiors with leather trim. Very well explained! The camera work and lighting is perfect.
Thank you for your kind words! I'm glad you found the explanation helpful.
You always do a good job demonstrating projects.
Well, I try my best to not make a complete mess of things on camera!
This is so satisfying! My favourite way to finish threads.
Tying up loose ends has never been more satisfying!
I'm kind of embarrassed I didn't figure this out for myself! I always just assumed that if you did that you'd undo the last stitch, otherwise why would people teach the reverse stitch method?
Now that I know, this looks better and seems more secure as well. I'm going to be using this a lot!
@@wilfdarr seriously! Try it, but practice as on occasion I pull out one extra stitch!
I like the technique of lifting the foot and perfectly aligning the final stitch. Nice!
Thank you for noticing the attention to detail in the video!
Very clearly presented...thank you.
Million dollar hack. Thank you!
Glad you found the hack helpful!
Thanks for sharing. I'm in the middle of a job and had brought the tails on the inside, but was wondering how to deal with the tails, so great timing! More work for the hot knife! Many thanks!
Glad the video was helpful for you in the middle of your job!
Hard working man. I bet many of the bullies don't have a job. Give the man a rest!
It's important to appreciate hardworking individuals!
Please make this foot available also for the LSZ-1!!
I saw your 12 YEAR OLD VIDEO YOU ARE VERY PASSIONATE MAN YOU R MY INSPIRATION SIR YOU ARE NO GIVE UP SIR

Beautiful attention to detail.
Thank you so much for noticing the details!
Amazing. Thankyou from NZ
We're thrilled to have viewers all the way from New Zealand! Thank you for your support!
I really like the video! I’m glad to see that you have working hands. 😉
Working hands are definitely a bonus in the world of creating content! Thanks for noticing.
Thanks, Eric. The only thing I do a little differently is I tie all four of the threads together at the same time (two on one side, two on the other) using a square knot and cut it leaving a some tail.
Great tip!
WoW Nice.. TY
Thank you so much for your kind words!
This is how my mother taught me to sew. I prefer this method over backstitching.
Backstitching is use to secure the beginning and ending of a “SEAM”.
IMHO one should never backstitch “TOPSTITCHING”, because it’s visible and unsightly.
“Seams” (essential) and “Topstitching” (decorative) are two completely different sewing techniques and are not related.
Who needs backstitching when you have your mom's sewing wisdom, right?
Great tutorial! Which thread are you using?
Tex 90 Polyester Thread. Thanks!!!!
Hi can u share the cotton u using thank you
It sounded as if you called it a double hand knot, is that the same as a square knot? Melting and mushrooming the ends ensures the knot is secure anyway. Cool technique!
Yes, a double hand knot is the same as a square knot. The two-handed surgical knot, also known as the suture knot, is a square knot that is often used in surgery.
Any chance of this foot becoming available on the Ultrafeed LS?
We have worked on a 3D print model, but it has some issues that we have not had the time to fix. Maybe in the distant future we might have one, but don't hold your breath.
Yes, your hands are very big and quite dirty.
For goodness sake!
Yep, big hands and lots of DIY makes for big dirty hands! I sew here at Sailrite and at night I am building my new house inside an old downtown building. So... my hands are usually dirty with all the DIY I do.
@@brianfanning9030take it easy Brian.
@@jafallicaNo, you take it easy! It's a dick comment to a hard working man.
Nice nails: you've obviously never done a day of real work in your pathetic life.
Good tutorial. I realize that hands get dirty when working but please clean under your fingernails before filming. Thanks. 😊
🤢🤢🤢🤢🤢

LOL You know what makes me 🤢? People who are so far removed from real work that they even notice.
Get a life.
@@wilfdarr I live on a ranch....what do you do?
@@jaycarver4886 "live on a ranch"... I'm guessing you pay people like me to do the work? Tell me I'm wrong.
