Wow. No stone left uncovered. Amazing visuals, fantastic attention to detail. I wasn’t struggling to see how anything was done. Everything was done so professionally. I had to watch this without the sound but will be watching again). I have subscribed . Thank you so much for such a great tutorial. I’m looking forward to watching more. Just one comment, i have limited sewing knowledge but was surprised at the way you put the zip in, it looked harder than the way I know of sewing onto one side and then the other. Having said that, your way possibly leads to a more accurate and even zip insertion. I’ve yet to try it.
I am not sure how anyone could give you a thumbs down! Your video’s are amazing and the instruction is so easy to follow! Thank you for such GREAT tutorials! You are not my favorite! Made your carryall bag yesterday!
Great video! All the Sailrite videos I have seen are high quality and provide helpful details. I can't wait to make a few of these soon now that I know the required materials. Any chance I can borrow one of your Sailrite machines for a couple months? Joking, of course. Some day, I hope to buy one as I have been impressed for a few years, since the very first time I visited the Sailrite website. Thanks for all the inspiration!
I am a novice sewer and can't tell which is the right and wrong side of the fabric at the different stages, so mine has come out all wrong :( Any tips please?
The fabric should feel smoother on the 'right' side. Start off with fabric that is different on either side when practicing. He's using patterned fabric in the video so you can feel the difference on the woven areas.
This is the most ridiculous and impossible way to insert a zipper. It may work well with a light fabric but not an upholstery fabric. There has to be a better method, this one is just setting people up to fail
@@bethbilous4720 do a RUclips search for facelift interiors. Look thru his videos, I know there is one there and it is sort of recent. I just see them up with a blind stitch.
This video doesn't explain how much fabric was added to allow for zipper allowance. Also, the fabric calculator doesn't show zipper allowance either! I am going to use the same technique that was used in boxed cushion i.e., allow an extra 1.25" inch of fabric for both sides of the zipper. First baste folded fabric to zipper and then separate zipper and sow each side as explained in boxed cushion video and put zipper back together. Hopefully, it will come out right. Will update my post when I am done.

I'm obsessed with making pillow cases, might have to give this one a go
@Rowan Ayaan and why would you do that? That's being a horrible friend

Thanks for the kind comments! As you know zippers can be installed in a number of different ways and most of them work great. Thanks again!!!!

Thanks Shawna! I hope your carryall bag project went well.

Very well done!
This is amazing. Beautiful presentation.
Thanks!!!
This is a great tutorial. However it’s much easier to sow one side of the cover to the zip then the other no need for basting stitch.
Very nice
Pls tell how much cloth is need to stitch 15x30 size of bolster?
47.55 inches or 1.32 yards. Use this calculator: www.fabric-calculator.com/bolster-pillows.aspx
The measurements were wrong on the fabric calculator!

Can i hand stitch this
Sure it can be hand stitched.
😊
I would have made a knot and buried it.

this is a terrible way to put a zipper in. There has to be an easier way.

I thought so also, please share how you would have inserted the zipper
