Works great, and I have had tried a number of things. This one really works. I hope I'm doing this right. Watched the bias video you were given. Here's ...
I have always wondered how to figure out how much give to have in a quilt hanging sleeve. I will have to look for the video again, on youtube, but there were some great directions there.
