    The most common decorative stitches in automotive upholstery are 'french seams and flat felled seams'. They are kinda fascination to all of us the car trimmers. That is why I am now reviving these seams on a motorcycle seat. Furthermore, as an extra touch I am adding the well known trim that is the piping/welting in an artisan mode.
    What is important to stand out is how useful is the molding process (techniques taught in our basic courses) to achieve covers with tailor's precision.
    Besides, the use of extra items that really help us with the sewing to get more straight line of stitches to getting a more professional outcome.
    I know many of us can sew precisely by 'eyeball' but we should not discard the use of OEM attachments that were invented for this purpose and are used in the upholstery section of most prestigious car factories.
    As we can see, for this demonstration I am using a 1.3 mm thick, sturdy beige automotive leather not easy to handle if not for our molds.
    I have used a thin 92 size polyester thread for the blind closing sewings with 3 mm stitches.
    A 138 size polyester thread for the decorative stitches on top with 6 mm stitches.
    I also have used blind sewings (inside hidden stitches) for the row of pleats/channels on main top panel. The foam for these pleats is 1/4" of an inch thick medium density foam. The backing cloth is felt fabric.
    The other surrounding panels are foamed with a soft headliner 4mm thick foam.
    I hope you find some inspiration in this video to perform your own upholstery projects!

    Oh my goodness. What a beautiful color of leather!! I love your choice to show us the thinnest of trim. HELLO MY FRIEND!!! How are you Cesar?? I hope you and your familia are doing well and are healthy and happy. I am STILL struggling with my machines. Lol. I brought 2 of them to a local repair man and paid a pretty penny to end up with 2 machines that are still not timed properly, and came home with more issues than they left with. But I am driving the bug! And I have figured out my painful life lesson is....PATIENTS!!! It is so good to see your hands. 💕 you warm my heart. Best wishes to you and the whole family.

    A steel nail or rod, sharpened to a point, chucked in a slow electric drill, will make short easy work of holes, even in tough materials. It’s far easier than shoving an awl through. I’ve used it in 1/4” shoe sole material. Being leather, the holes close neatly around the thread or cord after stitching.

      After verifying the usefulness, then I bought two of them. One for the Pfaff 1245 and one for the Durkopp&Adler 767

      Interesting question! If the surface would have been thoroughly flat, consequently the mold would have been only one with straight channels.
      I had to do it in four parts, because the surface is irregular. As we can see the first 10 channels/pleats are straight. The others have a slight curve.
      If I would have done all the channels straight the upper part would have suffered an excessive stretching.
