Finishing the Back Cushion Slipcover

Video Transcript

"Okay, now we're coming down to the corner just before our curve. You just want to reinforce that a little, and put your needle in. We'll snip here for our and it's easier to take it off to snip it. Snip to make that going around the corner easier. Put the needle in to pivot it, and here's our curve, and you're just going to want to keep the fabric on that curve. Go very slowly, and make sure that it's lined up. Continue to stop and readjust, and just keep that side panel lined up exactly along the curve, and stop frequently to readjust, and make sure that it's lined up properly. And we're coming to our end corner here, so we'll sew right up to the last corner, and then we'll trim off our excess. I'm going to back up a little to knot that, and we're going to sew. Place these two side panels together. This is the beginning of the Velcro section, and the end of the side panel, and here's our here's our corner. And you see that there's our seam allowance here, so line that up, and you can put a pin in it to hold it in place, and then sew. It's a little bit thick here; you'll have to find the right spot. Sew it with a five-eighths seam allowance here, straight down through the Velcro. First knot it; go back and forth to give it a good secure piece, and then continue down. You're going over the Velcro section, so you want to go slowly, and make sure that your machine can handle that, and then continue straight down. You can back up a little to secure that, and this extra piece can be trimmed off. And then I'll flip it inside outside right, so you can see how that corner turned out. So this is our Velcro closure right here, and this is the corner, the bottom corner of our irregularly shaped cushion. There is one side, and here's the curved section. Now you'll just apply this the other side the same way, and then you'll be finished."
