This is how I do it, most of my quilts are for children so I think think that makes them more child proof & washable. I usually use the rick rack stitch, like a zig zag but goes over itself a couple of times. I like my quilts to be used, played with, go on picnics & put on the ground, etc, let them be used til they fall apart, that makes me happy.
