Sewing on the banding - the square
by Julie Huber
I am working with the banding, and have cut the 4 pieces about 25" long. I have the 9" marked on front, back and both sides, but the banding isn't long enough to go from one place to the next. Is the top of the banding (the "V") supposed to be at the 9" mark, or the bottom or the middle? The pattern indicates that the top of the banding should be at the 9" mark, but the banding would need to be cut much longer than 23". The directions say the banding should be in a square around the neck, but the diagram shows more of a "V" pattern. Also, when sewing the banding at the shoulders, do you have any suggestion for neatly hiding the seam? I am surging the edges, but do you just tuck them under as neatly as possible? Or do you have a trick I can use?
