When I made a quilt with a ruffle, I used a pre-ruffled ruffle and it had a narrow binding on the edge so it make it easy to sew down. Otherwise I would have made the edge wide enough and just turned under before I sewed it down.
    I will be making the ruffle. I am gathering ideas to try out on a smaller sample to see what works best.

    I appreciate all the wonderful ideas from all you smart and talented quilters!
