Vines - 50-50
So after I “unsewed” the fabric -
And the Supreme Slider(TM) - ;))
I got all four border panels sewn -
And trimmed - ;))
Then I realized that the pre-packaged bias tape -
That I wanted to use -
Is 50% POLYESTER and 50% COTTON -
CRAP!!
It's not the same content -
And may not lay flat -
If and when it's ever washed -
Unless I do a decorative stitch -
All over the dang thing - ;))
I may re-test the 100% cotton narrow iron-on fusible -
But it's so skinny -
It may not cover the raw edges at the seam line -
So I may be looking at making yards -
And yards -
And yards -
Of bias -
Oh, goody - ;))
Talk to you later - gotta go - gotta sew -
well, bummer.....
