Corded Seams

The corded seam is a typical treatment

for slip covers, children’s clothes, blouses
and lingerie.

When cording a seam the zipper foot is

usually adjusted to the right of the needle
so that the bulk of the work will fall to the
left.
• Attach corded welting to right side of a

single seam edge, using same length

stitch as used for welting (page 40).

Guide edge of foot next to cord, but

do not crowd.

• Place attached corded welting over

second seam edge, and pin or baste
together,

0 Keep the first stitching uppermost as a

guide and position the seam under

the needle.

• Stitch, this time crowding the foot

against the cord.

This method produces evenly joined

seam edges and tightly set welting.

Curved seams are corded as easily as

straight seams, except that a shorter
stitch is used. Since the seam allowance
of the welting is bias, it is easy to shape

it to the seam.
