Re: Yet another GMC build

I made a small piece to illustrate how to do it (if anyone is interested). Sew the binding piece (here a 3 inch wide leather strip) on top of the carpet edge, upside down. Run two seams close together and it gives you a nicer edge when it's done. Use some 3M spray adhesive on the leather and the bottom of the carpet and wrap it carefully around. It will hold it while you stitch the final seam. Run the last seam from the top right up against the edge of the leather. (called sewing in the ditch). That ties the back of the binding in place.
