Thanks to you I have just made my first ever bolster cover and I’m really pleased. Your instructions are easy to follow and I was very impressed you didn’t use any pins (I used loads). It is very pleasing that people like you are willing to share your expertise.
That’s fantastic well done! Thanks very much for watching and for the great feedback we love to hear about people’s successes. Feel free to send us a picture of your completed cushion to contact@premierupholstery.co.uk as we’d love to see it

Thanks for watching and the feedback, you should be fine as long as it’s not too small as it does start to get harder, best of luck with it and keep us updated!

@@premierupholstery-upholste90 Thanks to God, then to you, you provide useful and interesting content, and I thank you again - I am from Iraq
Hi thanks for a great video. I hope I’m not being extremely dim here but I’m confused by your explanation for the zipper at around 6:35. You say you put the slider on then take it off at the other end, to leave the zipper fully closed. You then say you put it back on and slide it to the middle and that leaves you with no open ends, but doesn’t the act of putting it back on mean you split the zipper again? I have watched your other video about the zipper but it doesn’t seem to cover this point.
I hope I can get my head around it as your way of doing it looks so neat. Thanks again.
@@maggiecraven9625 hi and thanks for watching. No it can be a bit confusing so don’t worry. The reason we do this be just to help when sewing everything together as the zip piece can be tricky to sew to the border and this helps hold it all together as one nice and tight. Once it’s all finished and you use the zip pull it opens back up again. It’s not completely necessary just a little something we do to make life easier and, we think, a little better finish as well. There are no hard and fast rules and people will do a lot of things different and once you’ve done a few you will find your own best way. Hope this makes sense?😄 Feel free to ask any more questions or email contact@premierupholstery.co.uk
@@premierupholstery-upholste90 Thank you so much for your helpful reply. I am going to just jump in and have a go, with the video on slow motion. I’ve managed to get the piping looking not too bad for first attempt so the zips will be inserted one way or another! Thanks again.
Hi, nice instructional video with cery crleat explanations. Can I ask the brand of the scissors you are using?
@@miseriana hi and thank you for watching. These are called workmasters shears 8” long and they’re great for using on the sewing machine as you can easily snip multiple layers, here is a link to them on Amazon amzn.eu/d/0ikDnNIj
Very good
Thank you very much, and thanks for watching
excuse my total ignorance in the subject, but can one make the cushion without a zip?..
Hi and thanks for watching. Yes it would be possible but would be slightly harder as you would need to either hand stitch it together and use another system like Velcro. Some sewing machines can get very close to close up cushions like cylinder arm machines but it would be cheaper to just use a zip or hand stitch than buy a new machine. Hope this helps 😄

Thank you and thanks for watching!
When you added the bolster insert - did you push the seams on the inside towards the circle ends or away and back towards the main body or /tube?
Thank you and thanks for taking the time to make the video
Hi and thank you for taking the time to watch the video. We fold the back of the seams towards the main body as it gives the neatest finish. If you have them the other way they bunch up and look messy.
I love it. I'm about to make a neck roll pillow for Sis who has arthritis. I bought an already covered pillow from Jo-Ann Crafts, will do the measurements & cover w/really sweet nursing fabric. My zippers are not detachable so that will be a challenge. Any suggestions for that type of zipper job? Thanks! Sewing in 🇺🇸
Hi and thanks for watching. It will be a bit more tricky sewing it together with a closed end zip but you should be ok. It will probably be easier to pin it together so you can see how it will all sit and then go over with the sewing machine after. You need to keep it inside out and open the zip so you can run around from one end to the other and then across to the other side to do the same and meet up at the starting point. Feel free to email us if it helps contact@premierupholstery.co.uk
You are awesome. Great advise. I'm dyslexic too but I hope to do just what you said. 👍
@@frannicat best of luck with it. Just let us know if you need any help. We will try to make a video about installing these type of zips.
Шедевр. Молодец
Большое спасибо😁👍🏼
Thank you very much😁👍🏼
Hi! I need a tutorial how to upholster a curved, uneven chair seating. Thanks!
Hi, thank you for watching. Please send us a picture of the seat to contact@premierupholstery.co.uk and we will take a look!
Great video but no overlapping the cording.
Hi and thanks for watching. This was an easy way to do it but next time will show how to do a sewn join, thanks for the feedback!
Cushion cover or a giant pencil box :D
Hello. Thanks you for this video.
Do you use a spécial foot for Pipping?
Thanks you. I Will use it for sunbrella. What is tout opinion?
Hello and thanks for watching. Yes we use a piping foot which you should be able to find online for your machine and we have used it for sunbrella and it worked perfectly.
@@premierupholstery-upholste90 thank you. Because I saw a lot of professionnal working without this... I think it is better with.
Better job and more precise
@@ameliebernardin7678 yes exactly, it’s much better and also easier to keep it all in line and nice and tight
ذ hello Sir. Know the form making and in a few months you will learn this furniture work
Awesome tutorials, you make it look easy ;) But I don't need to have the welt/piping. Do you have the tutorial for it? Thank you!!
Thanks for watching and for the great feedback! We’ve had a lot of practice over the years 😄, yes we have some videos on piping/ zip and how to attach it, here is the link to the piping one ruclips.net/video/P04lsq_F4yU/видео.html, hope it helps
Sorry just read your comment again and realised you didn’t want piping! 😅Just copy it as in the video and don’t put the piping on, it will work exactly the same but will just have the sewn seam in the ends instead of the piping detail
Hi how did u form d circle
Hello and thanks for watching. Luckily we have some cardboard circle guides which we can use for this. It is possible to do it with a ruler and a pen/ chalk. Measure a square the same diameter as your circle and mark dead centre on the back, then slowly rotate the ruler around the centre making reference marks at the same measurement as the circle diameter every inch or so and eventually you can join the dots and will have a circle. Hope this helps.
What was the name of the stuffing please and was it just rolled up to the size you wanted? What thickness did you use? Thanks
@@katgle2925 hi and thanks for watching. This was just some old Dacron that we rolled and glued up into the bolster shape. It would have been made a bit bigger than the finished size of the cushion to fill it out nicely.
Thanks 👍
@@katgle2925 you’re more than welcome, best of luck with your projects!
You make me feel like dropping everything and making a couple of these right now!
That’s great to hear! We’re very happy to be able to help and inspire people. Best of luck with your projects 👍🏼 and thank you for watching and the great comment
Video too fast, music too loud.
Hi and thanks for watching. That’s is for the feedback we will keep it in mind for next time 👍🏼
The sound cutting in and out is a bit annoying
Hi and thanks for watching, our sound doesn’t cut out so will have to investigate that
Thank you, and yes, the music cut off and on throughout the tutorial.
You don't explain anything that you're doing and going so fast!
Hi and thanks for watching. This video is aimed at people who have a bit of basic knowledge so we didn’t explain how to make piping or inserting a zipper. We do have some short videos explaining how to do these though which you might want to take a look at first.
