how to keep edges from fraying on a top
#13
They really shouldn't fray that much just unfolding them and holding them up for people to see. I sure wouldn't use fray check on them, that could get pricey. At the most I would do a stay stitch around the edge.

Another idea instead of fray check would be Elmers Glue. Dilute it 50% with water and paint a very thin fine amount right at the edge. You can sew through it easily and it will wash right out.
