The double welt trimmer (10) includes a housing (12) which includes a forward and rearward end (32 and 34). A double welt guide (14) is carried by the housing (12) and includes at least one through hole (44) opening on the forward and rearward ends (32 and 34) and dimensioned to closely receive and guide the double welt (22). The double welt guide (14) includes a substantially radial slot (46) to receive and guide the selvage (28). A cutting blade (16) is attached to the housing (12) at an acute angle proximate the forward end (32) with the cutting portion (52) of the blade (16) directed toward the rearward end (34). A J-type bolt (56) is provided for securing the cutting blade (16) on the housing (12) such that the cutting blade (16) may be selectively mounted and adjusted.
