Facing edge
I have been wanting to try facing instead of binding for a while. I decided my mini would be a good size to give it a go. I stitched the facing edge, used my pinking shears to trim the edge and turned the facing to the back to hand stitch. I stitched about 1/8 in from the edge to finish it. It looked a little plain so I added some circles. [ATTACH=CONFIG]575194[/ATTACH]

Thank you for the picture of the back.
So it's handled like a garment facing - but the loose edge is turned in and stitched down?
I like the effect the edge stitching. It Adds a lot of definition to the piece.
