Oh goody. It's rare that I see something really new and interesting, this is a fun new idea to me (guess I needa get out more eh!)

Is there any particular pattern you used for this, or any specific tips? Or just start gathering gently until the needed length is achieved? Used a foundation fabric under the shirring?? Hmmm??
I'm going to incorporate this shirring thing into my next mini. I'm very excited about this.
