Fray Stop

I have a couple of bottles of Fray Check. Now I will get some of this Fray Block. Thanks ladies for the tip. When I do my "art" wall hangings I do a lot of raw edge work. And I usually don't put anything on it because it is seldom washed. To remove the dust, I slip it on the dryer on the air cycle to remove the dust.

Fray Block is one you might want to try. It dries soft, whereas Fray Check dries hard. Fray Block comes in two forms -- tube or brush-on (like nail polish). Here is a link to the brush on type onAmazon:

I use Fray Check as I see others like it too. It is a little stiff, but it goes through the washer and dryer over and over without any issues. Also, as a side note, if someone who reads this, (and nobody ever reads mine, haha) if you are having trouble threading your machine, a little fray check on your index finger, run about two inches of thread through your closed thumb and finger and walla! Magic.
