I've been wanting to learn how to make cushions with piping for a long time, but have always assumed that it would be complicated, plus you need a special foot, so I've put it off.
Last week though I decided to bite the bullet and order a piping foot for my Pfaff sewing machine, hoping that having one in my possession would give me that extra kick to master something new.
After a few days of staring at the foot (and wondering if I'd ordered the wrong one by mistake), yesterday I finally sat down to use it and within only minutes I was making my first ever corded piping. And then not much later I made my first cushion with piping!
And I'm hooked. So much so that if you sit still for too long around these parts at the moment, you're going to end up having piping sewn to you.
I love (and am a little surprised by) how professional the piping has made the new cushions look and I really love the little burst of colour it adds.
