The black lines are 1/4" wide. Yes I starched my fabric before cutting the 3/4" wide strips used to sew into all those seams to achieve 1/4" wide ( leading). If I were to make it again I would probably use the 1/4" fusible quick bias and applique the lines on instead of sewing them into the seams. As I went along I learned lots and thought of things I could have done easier.
