Terrific Tool Thursday: Fray Check

It's time for another terrific tool! Fray Check (from Dritz) is a must for every sewing room. It's a product that you put on ribbons, fabrics and threads to prevent fraying. It dries clear so there's no ugly spot (although I do test it on unique ribbons before I go to town). This image was taken right after application so you could see how much I used.Here's a picture of the same ribbon. On the right is the dry fray check and on the left is the piece that I didn't fray check. I opened and closed the drawstring bag five times and this is how much it frayed. I'll be trimming it and applying fray check later:)You can also use it for making perfect buttonholes!xo LC
