CHAPTER 8 NOT WHAT IT SEAMS

To make these decorative seams I used edgings that I made and some of purchased pieces from my 'scraps' bag


8a- frayed satin ribbon used to make tassils


8b- cotton selvage used to make fabric points



8c- small lengths of folded fabric inserted in the seams




8d- bobble fringing joining two printed fabric 




8e-bobble fringing and braid used to embellish seams



78- embroidered fabrics joined by braid


7f- printed fabric and fringing


My reflections on this chapter:-
I enjoy making my own seam embellishments and edgings but I found making these samples quite challenging because I did not have a definite project in mind to decorate or finish.
