my first diy

[Carolina Kiltman]

The fabric you have does not have a kilting selvedge, so you may want to cut off the fringe, bind-stitch (sometimes it is called whip-stitching) then turn the hem. Don't worry, our band has a new set of kilts, all of which have a hem, and the only way you can tell is to get real close and turn up the fabric and look.

[Dixiecat]

That series of holes does not mean your length of fabric is defective in anyway. It means that at one point the fabric was stretched on a tenter, using tenterhooks. You've all heard that expression, I'm on tenterhooks?

Btw, those holes will never go away. It's a hem for you boyo!
