    We are looking for trim to put on placemats. Also maybe rick-rack or piping or braid.

    Try making prairie points. It will always match and you can make them pretty small if needed.

    Do you live a long distance from any fabric stores?

    I tend to forget that some people don't have the luxury of several stores within "easy reach"

    If you have washed/shrunk your fabric before cutting/sewing it, you should consider washing/shrinking your trims before applying them. Some of them also shrink.

    My thoughts also......most fabric stores carry various types of trim/laces.

    Do you trim the corners before moving on?
