I am having trouble with a seat cover. I have completed two successful covers. Both were ruined at the point when I tried the french seems. The stitches "float" due to the thickness of the 1/4 pink sew foam bulking up my cover. I see that the gentlemen in the video is using something else very successfully. His pieces lay well and sew well, he never uses the pink foam. Should I be using this 4mm foam with some sort of material backing in place of sew foam (not sure what he is using here) and forgo the scrim foam? my seat cover is similar to his.
Thanks in advance.
