hestiah said... I got my foldover elastic from laceheaven.com--I got it from them only because I was also ordering some wide stretch lace trim. I saw that sewsassyfabrics had it also. I find the FOE a little stiff for around the legs, but fine for the waistband. I believe I need to leave more allowance for this particular FOE (not sure if all is like the stuff I got or not), and I need to make the elastic a lot less tight in the front of the panties. However, I think it might be possible that the FOE just won't be comfy enough for me at the legs. For comfort, I think that sadly I'm going to need to cut off the leg elastic and do them up with regular elastic (don't have enough of the pink stuff left). And there is NO WAY I am ripping out all that zigzag stitching! 4/13/09 2:06 PM
