Fray check hint
 

Fray check dries in a gob and dis colors the edges....it can be reversed! Use a dab of rubbing alcohol and it's gone! After finding this out,I had a thimbleful of the other alcohol to celebrate saving a quilt.

That is worth knowing! Thank you for the tip!

While that might work to dissolve the fray check, remember ...... rubbing alcohol on fabric, could discolour or cause a colour run?!

I never use Fray Check anymore. If I need to use something, I use Fray Block which dries soft.

thanks for the tip

i didn't know there was a different product. thanks.

That is what I use also. I found out they have it in a bottle with brush applicator now, also. Haven't tried the latter as yet. I use it mostly for applique, when I have a tight curve and too many cuts to make the turn. I put Fray Block along the curve after stitching, just for insurance.

You made me laugh with the bits about alcohol! Thanks!

Good info. Thanks.

Thanks for that info! I was going to buy some this weekend to see how it compared to Sew Secure, which doesn't discolor or glob. You just saved me time and money! Yeah! Thanks!
