    ​I've used the red jumbo before but I sewed it on at 1/8 seam allowance before cutting the extra off. It helps to catch the edges better with no danger of the raw edges sneaking out of pins.

    Yes, I thought that was just so clever! Of course, she does have her own line of rick rack!

    Much prettier than felt!
