Your term makes more sense to me! :wink:
Maybe "flap" is too common or it just doesn't sound like you've done something to amaze and astound people.
"I put a "flap" in the border" doesn't sound nearly as complicated as "I sewed in a dimensionally folded insert at the outer edge of my inner border to separate, enhance and accentuate the rich tones of the outer border. It also adds a "three dimensional" quality to my quilt rather than the normal two dimensions of yours." Now, you've really accomplished something. :lol: :lol: Personally, I'll put a flap in.
LMAO!!!!! You are a NUT!!!! I'll have to try this "Flap" method.
