Corded Welting
Cable cord comes in a variety of sizes
and when covered with a firmly woven
fabric makes a corded welting that is an
excellent seam finish.
This welting is prepared in advance and
then stitched into the seam. Cut a true
bias strip 1¼ inches wide, plus three
times the width of the cord of either self
or contrasting fabric. Sew strips
together on the lengthwise grain to
obtain desired length.
Adjust zipper foot to left side of
needle.
Encase cord in bias strip, raw
edges even.
Lower presser bar.
Stitch close to cord, using a stitch
length slightly longer than for
plain seaming of same fabric.
Do not crowd stitching against
cord.
