I'm very lucky: I can get proper curved Petersham in black and white in
my local shop. I just bought 5m of each colour the other day. If you
need some, let me know.

I use elastic a lot too, especially on stretch things, but for some of
my posh frock customers, petersham is best. You can also get petersham
with bones in to stop it curling up... Or you COULD! Haven't seen it
for a while, but then I haven't needed it. :)
