Here is how I added piping to my dining room chairs for a more finished, professional look. You don't even have to sew if you don't want to. I'll show you both ways! Here's a peek at the sew method. For full details and the no-sew method, follow the link to my bloggity blog.

Camille Carlin on Jul 16, 2014Looks very finished. I studied your piece of fabric and it looks like it was cut on the bias. Do you have a trick for doing that and making it simple. I would love to hear it was not cut on the bias???? Thanks.

Confessions of a Serial DIYer on Jul 17, 2014@Camille Carlin You will love my answer then...I have been sewing since I was 12 and I never pay attention to the bias! I think it may be more important if you were making clothing, but for covering dining room chairs and making piping, I don't think it matters. :)

Camille Carlin on Jul 17, 2014Yes, I love your answer. I was thinking you might need bias to make the curve but you have proved it's not needed. The piping makes so much difference in making a professional looking cushion. Thanks for your creativity and sharing.

Confessions of a Serial DIYer on Jul 17, 2014@Camille Carlin I agree...I love how piping just finishes it off so nicely! So glad I could help! :)
