persevering said... Thanks for your review ... when you do the edge stitching at the fold at the top of the waistband, Did you also stitch through the elastic or only the fabric? (Or did you only edgestitch through the fabric itself and you are thinking of stitching through for the future?) 8/9/11 12:57 PM
