I would like to second the circle suggestion. My daughter appliques circles on quilts often (just because she likes circles), and they really add so much dimension.

I know this will sound like the ultimate sin, but I had a baby quilt do that the day before the shower. I used "okay to wash it" glue. Put it on a toothpick and ran a line down every seam. Never did hear if it fell apart later, though.

:lol: What is a Purple Thang? Too old for stilettoes! Maybe a small knitting needle would work. I will definitly try it. And the circles are a good idea too. I just don't think I have enough matching fabric to do more than the binding.

Purple Thang, http://www.clotilde.com/detail.html?...riteria=purple

There's also a stiletto at the bottom of the page.

The material is all the same kind. Ihate to think of it coming apart in other places. :thumbdown: But if the wonderunder and the fray check works I will at least have some extra to fix them. BTW thanks for all of the suggestions. I just love this board. :D I found out about it from the How-To-Quilt newsletter.

I've used invisible thread on frays, sewing "in the ditch" over the fraying. You can't see it and it leaves an extra layer to keep it together.
