Rick rack is a decorative zigzag trim, and this is the jumbo width in leaf green, measuring 5/8 inch wide with 2.5 yards per length. It is made from 100% polyester. The wider zigzag carries at a distance rather than acting as a fine detail, so it holds its own along a quilt border, a curtain hem or a bag panel where a narrower trim would disappear. The points are non-curl, meaning they lie flat rather than lifting and rolling at the peaks once stitched or washed.
The trim can be fused, glued or sewn in place, so it suits sewing and non-sewing projects alike. That flexibility is why rick rack turns up on clothing, table linens, tote bags, home decor, scrapbook pages, cards and gift wrap. Leaf green is a fresh mid-tone green, and the zigzag shape works in its favor here: a row of green points reads as foliage, vines, or grass with no extra effort, which makes it useful on garden and spring projects, Christmas makes, and children's sewing. It is machine washable and colorfast as supplied by the manufacturer. This listing is for the trim only; no fabric, thread, adhesive or notions are included.
