    I've been using a little jumbo rick rack as well as a little lace on a few blocks on all the little girl baby quilts I'm making, and I love it!

    I may be wrong but I think the new ric rac is poly so no, it is not shrinkage, just the nature of the product. Think if I were going to use if I would zigzag up and down to keep from curling or do something to tack it down

    Great tute, thanks. Maybe now I'll actually use the Accuquilt Zig Zag die that I bought some time ago.

    Rick-Rack can be a fun addition. I like bright and happy quilts, and do tack down places if I feel they may be an issue...

    I have been using rick rack in quilts for at least the last 8 years. The quality coming out of China in the package, you have to remove it and check the contents to make sure it is not all stretched out in places.
