Step 9Finishing Touches: Adding A Border
You can use Bias Tape for a finished edge or make your own decorative trim by cutting strips of matching fabric two inches wide, you will need about 70 inches total.
With right sides together sew pieces together to make one long strip. Cut the excess fabric to about 1/4 inch. Press the seams open then fold your strip in half and press the entire length.
Turn the strip over and fold both outer edges to the center fold leaving a little space on each side. Press the whole length again.
Fold the strip in half again with the folded sides to the inside and press the length one more time.
You now have the piece for the decorative border ready.
