Trimming Angular Piping

Okay so now I have both pieces of fabric sewn, sandwiching this piping that we made and I've made a right angle with it, something that would be on a pillow. Now the last thing that we need to do is go ahead and trim out this fabric so it won?t be so bulky inside. And right here we have the piping has been cut open and it's just lying to the side. But we have this piece of fabric here and what I'm going to do is cut right here at an angle. And we're just going to trim all this fabric off in there. Just like so. And then I'm going to go in here and trim off this excess to like approximately a half an inch seam allowance. There we go. And I'm going to go over here and do the same. Just trim of this extra. There we go. And this way when you turn it out, let's turn it out and see what it looks like, there?s not a bunch of bulky fabric in there. I'm just going to put my thumb right in the corner, my finger right there and just push it out. There we go. It just lies really, really nice. And so now you can tell since I cut out that fabric at an angle that the two pieces are actually just meeting corner to corner right in the middle. So anyways, that's how you put in piping around the corner of maybe a pillow or something like that.
