Hello Jellytots!
I would weave in and out along the side for 5",
Then I would pull the strand, so the edge i now had sewn is half of what
it was (to 2,5"), Then anchor it so it don't gliss back to the first
length, by sew a couple of stitches on the top of the last stitch. Then
start on new 5", pull to 2,5" and achor it.
I don't know if you understood me, I am Norwegian, and not very clear in
English explanations! LOL!
