For those that have been following along ... my OBW is all stitched and now back into one piece again.

The points will be chopped off and there'll be no borders. Binding and Backing will both be in the Virgin Fabric ... and possibly a piping insert? or ruffle? .... or if anyone has any ideas, I'm open to suggestions.

The Virgin Fabric

This OBW is much calmer and softer than the many lovely vibrant ones. The photo colour is not as well represented here, as it is in the virgin fabric shown below.

I haven't worked with piping for years and am somewhat nervous of it.
MamaBear ... What size and type of cording do you use?
and where do you buy yours? Fabricland? Lens?
