I’m making 32 10″ ruffles and my machine does not have a ruffler….. so I’m doing this the old fashioned way.
Two rows, as basting stitches…… after I make the ruffle, before I sew onto the fabric; I cut about 3/4″ strips out of muslin + the finished width. I sew the ruffle onto this small piece. Then I place my ruffle, which is now secure, onto the fabric and pin in place…. It sounds like extra work, but that strip makes placing the ruffle and finally sewing it down a whole lot easier!
