Making Pillows: Sewing On the Gimp

Video Transcript

Hello! This is Lindsay with Expert Village.com. In this clip, I am going to be showing you how to sew on the gimp. I will be using a small zig zag stitch. Just take one strand of your gimp and we are going to be putting in on the edge of the beige material and since the stitch is 15 inches long it is supposed to go all the way across the pillow leaving a half inch on each side. When we sew it, we are only going to sew until this first line where the edge of the square of the edge is because later on we are going to make a zig zag pattern where we are going to be using the glue. So get your stitch on there, the gimp on there where you want it and put it in our machine. I am going to do this with both sides of the gimp but only go to that square edge. Make sure you don’t sew anywhere past this line right here. Now that we have sewn these three strips on and we stopped at the line right before the square, we are going to sew the next three on going vertical. When we sew these on, we are going to do the same thing as we did for the first three except this time we are going to stop at the edge of the bottom of the square.
