Here is a website where she shows how to impliment rick rack in your quilt binding. I think it looks adorable, especially for baby quilts.

Very cute and looks easy.

Thanks for the great link. I'm going to try this on the baby quilt I'm making. Looks very nice.

thanks for the link, I saved it

BEAUTIFUL - word of advice - before using rick rack please prewash and dry because it does shrink and you could ruin your quilt when washed later - hope this saves someones quilt. Quilt teacher and author Michelle Linder told me this when I was working on an embellished Christmas quilt.

Oh thanks, that's good to know. Wouldn't have thought about it.

Thanks for the idea and tutorial, I bookmarked it, you never know when you might want to use.

Thanks for the great idea, I had never thought of it but it sure is a good idea & looks adorable.

Thanks for the great link. I love the wide ric-rac.

I wonder if the author meant to say "binding" when she said "bias." I have not had good luck using bias binding on a straight-edge quilt.
