Re: Upholstery fabric


 

Depends on the fabric also ... do you need a Jeans/Denim needle?
Or Leather?

I believe that you will want a heavier needle as well. I¡¯ll defer to Mary on this.

Subject: [yarnmongers] Upholstery fabric

?

I need to make a couple of small covers to cover the sofa cushions where they shrank on washing. I have a 100 or 110 needle and plan to use a walking foot - which I got after all my placemat hemming in Jan.?

?

I assume I increase the stitch size? I have some strong Coats thread that I used to sew the casing on the carpet that I hung on the wall. I¡¯m planning to use that. It is thicker than regular sewing machine thread.?

?

Any other tips?
