Hello All!
I'm new here. Just did the Apprentice course. Fab course!
I'm a self-taught sewing person since high school but still have horrible techniques. I have a 40 yr old Kenmore (all steel not plastic) and an LSZ-1 Sailrite with servo motor. I had wanted a consew but it was not in budget at the time. I don't forsee this being a business, we have several boats. I have been making cushions etc for our sailboat and hub wants me to re-do vinyl in our Yamaha power boat. Me, not so much. Seems SO complex!
That all said, I am getting conflicting answers from other friends who I know about using Ultraleather. Do I use seam allowance since it does have a 3-4 way stretch or do I use standard 3/8 or 1/2 inch? I'm terrified to begin a salon cushion project ($65/yard!!) the other parts of the cabins are going to be Morbern vinyl (which I used for cockpit earlier this yr). Thanks in advance! :)
