Summary: Sewing is an ancient craft that still has remarkable relevance in today's modern world. The art of stitching and assembling pieces of fabric together either by hand or with the use of a modern sewing machine is still a valuable skill and can be used for industry, home, or artistic purposes. Industrial sewing is usually done with the use of machines, but for seamstresses, alteration givers, and most casual sewers, an old fashioned needle and thread is still incredibly useful and more often than not the desired method since it enables far more detail. Tailoring and dressmaking require not only a needle and thread, but also other tools and materials that you can find easily at arts and crafts stores.

In this free video series our expert seamstress will teach you how to sew piping. You will learn about the supplies you need to make piping and learn how to make and cut the fabric strips for piping. You will also get step by step instructions for sewing the piping, and then learn how to attach piping to different shapes of fabric. Whether you are attaching piping to a round pillow, a straight collar or an angled piece of fabric like a curtain, our expert will show you everything you need to know for start to finish piping projects.
