Thank you for that suggestion. I know I have some somewhere. Will try it on a scrap as you suggest. I want to make sure the stitches won't come loose or out.

Good tip everyone. I am going to start using the smaller stitches beginning and end. Thanks to all.

Make sure it's June Taylor's Fray Block. It doesn't show and it doesn't create a hard spot. Fray Check is a different product and hasn't give me the same results. Good Luck!
