Fons and Porter braided the ric rac and made it look very cool. They took 2 strands and wrapped them around each other. Made it look like a rope. Then they sewed down the center over a seam. I love the look and if you use the right colors you will have a wonderful boy baby quilt!!!

I think that it may shrink a lot - at least it used to when I sewed for my girls.[/quote][/quote]

Years ago when we were square dancing, every piece of rick rack that I used in my first dress shrank and had to be ripped out, washed in HOT water and resewed. On a quilt it might be pretty on an ocean background, but not in areas that need to lie flat.
