BERNINA
Notes
Covered Cord Tips:
Fabric strips should be cut
1¼" plus the circumference
of the cord being used. Trim
the 2" strip, if needed, to work
with the cording being used.
This should result in a
seam allowance on the
finished piping.
Strips for covering cord
are generally cut on the bias
(diagonal); however, cross-
wise and lengthwise strips
may be used if there are
no corners to be turned or
curves to maneuver.
