You’d attach the sleeve as you would normally with the piping cord part on the garment side of the seam allowance. A piping or cording foot works fantastically here! But a zipper foot works just as well. Put the zip foot on so it sits on the “right” of the seam line, on the seam allowance. Sew the sleeve in with stitches right next to the piping (which, again, is on the garment side, or to the left of the zip foot and seam line). If in doubt, pin in the sleeve then hand baste loosely around the seam line to get the idea of where all the layers (including piping) are laying in the seam before final stitching. Good luck!

Hi Cara, I don’t have a standalone online workshop for piping, however I do demo the full application and variances of sewing piping in my dirndl workshop class, and a bit also in the Regency Spencer class.

As to your picture question, yes, you baste on the piping to the right side of the garment, then layer the lining over and sew; turn lining to the inside and the piping will stick out between the two layers.

hI, YOU DID NOT FINISH THE PIPING INSTRUCTION OF NOW THE PIPING IS CONNECTED TO THE FABRIC, SO NOW HOW DO YOU FINISH OFF THE PIPING? DO YOU JUST FOLD OVER THE PIPING AND SEW IT DOWN ( WHICH LOOKS AWFUL ON THE UNDER SIDE) OR WHAT??? THE FINISHING AFTER THE PIPING IS PINNED AND SEWN CLOSE TO THE PIPING, EDGES TRIMMED AND CLIPPED SO NOW WHAT DO YOU DO WITH THE RAW EDGES?? THANKS SANDY
