Sharks teeth are similar to prairie points in that they are pointy trianglea on a border, but are completely sewn down as in applique. They may be on the inner edge of a border, the outer edge of a border or both edges of a border. They make a striking border, especially if they are done up in a fabric with high contrast to the background.
