I have made some progress over the last couple of days on my Heart Birth Sampler. The border now extends down the left side about half way.
And look, ma! No more fraying edges! I let you in on a little secret - I own a serger. So instead of bitching and moaning about the sad state of the fraying linen that came unfinished with the kit, I took the matter in my own hands and voila! Nice and neat, no?
Understandably, not everyone has a serger to keep things from unravelling. Neither did I until very recently. The lack of a serger does not mean you have to put up with a hot mess of shedding edges. Next time I will show a couple of techniques that do not require expensive tools to keep things in check.
Happy sewing until then!
