I haven't seen this technique before.
When we run welt cord around the bottom of a chair it can get touchy around the top of the legs, espeically if there is no groove for the lip of the welt cord to fit into.
There are several techniques that I use to handle this issue. Here's a new one for me. Old welt cord was stapled along the top of the legs. The face fabric was brought down over this welt cord and stapled under it. Then trimmed as close as possible.
The new welt cord had the lip cut off as much as possible, and then run under the lump (old welt cord that had been stapled first), on top of the face fabric. It looked great. I didn't notice it until I tool off the old fabric.
I hope these pics show the technique well.

We use some cardboard taking strip to build it up like that. 2 or 3 thicknesses does the trick.
is there a way to make the pictures larger?
Right click on the photo, then "View Image"
If the image is still not large enough, CTRL + to enlarge it (can repeat)
At least this works in Firefox browser.

no, don't have that option
Photobucket gives me two links to copy.
One is the blue link listed. When you click on this it takes you to the photobucket web site and the full sized picture. I don't know why this would not work for everyone.
The second link puts a thumbnail pic on this page.

Can everyone click on this pic and see the enlargement on my PB page?
Did you use a picture of a Juki LU-563 because you know it has a bigger bobbin than my Juki LU-562?
I only find two links on photbucket. One an HTML thumb and the other an image.
Here's the image: (https://forum.upholster.com/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fi830.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fzz228%2Fgenejoe%2FDSCF3218_zpse9803769.jpg&hash=13b95af71c7645d4fbf98414407edbf9)

PS: I did a 'copy image location' off the photo in photobucket. Here it is: http://i830.photobucket.com/albums/zz228/genejoe/DSCF3218_zpse9803769.jpg
Hey, the 'copy image location' off the photo might help out.

PS: These are the same as what I put in my original post.
Yep, they worked but now there is no thumb pic.
BTW I do my welt like Paul, build it up with cardboard and then I hot glue it on. It seems building it up with welt would be too thick and you would lose the cord underneath. Guess i won't know till I try.
