Double fold-back steeks

good for wall hangings and cushion tops

With double fold-back steeks, the finishing work is done ahead. When you cut, the ends fold under, forever hidden. Quick and sturdy, it is somewhat bulky. Its best use is wall hangings and cushion tops, but it could be used for blankets and perhaps even cardigan fronts. The post features several brief videos to walk you through the process.

In this photo, the ends are hidden under “D,” which is the folded-back steek.

Here is a top-down overview of the concept:

After the cut, the edges fold under (arrows) to curl up inside, shown bottom row. The large asterisk is the new fabric edge, the smaller shows the fold hiding the ends.
