🔸 I am almost done with my office chair. This time I want to share some tips regarding how I tackled the headrest cover following the same OEM cuts. Basically, I have only added the watch strap design in the center part of it.

The replica I made in vinyl has the same measurements. One more time, I am convinced and hope you would realize too, that a double needle post bed sewing machine is of great help to sew the double stitches (french seams) in case of doing certain kinds of headrests.

The double stitches were set up to a distance of 10 mm between the stitching lines.
I used a 92 thread size for the blind sewings. For the decorative double stitches I used a 138 bonded red thread on top and 92 thread size in the bobbin.

I used a strip of black celestra fabric as backing for the double stitches. It somehow helps to reinforce and add more firmness to the french seams.
I hope you find the video inspirational and the tips useful!
A Happy New Year 2022!!!
