I think the greek seam looks fantastic, will really work on a fleec fabric!!!!!But if it is too complicated, I would go for a clean finish instead. <br /><br /> Just stumbled across your blog- it is truly great! I wonder if you would allow me to feature this blog on mine- <a href="http://www.sewingandstyle.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow"> Juliette's Sewing and Style Den</a> and if maybe you could check it out and add it to the blog list too? I only started blogging a few month ago and trying to spread the word a bit. Thank you.

I've never heard of Greek stitch before, but it looks a bit like an overlocked edge, which has then been turned under and topstitched.Carolynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03156106727490224625noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6887251131482693266.post-61545113273800600762011-01-09T15:42:01.042-05:002011-01-09T15:42:01.042-05:00I think a coat 5987 would be very elegant in the c...I think a coat 5987 would be very elegant in the camel color you've chosen.
