Hi Everyone-
I have a question about finishing raw edges before prewashing. I’m a prewasher (I know it’s a debate whether to wash or not wash). I was always taught to prewash my fabric so that’s what I do. If you are a prewasher, how do you finish your raw edges to prevent fraying. I typically use my sewing machine and use the overcasting stitch but when you have yards of fabric it takes some time. I normally sew it as one layer. Has anyone ever folded the fabric and sewen the two raw edges together? I think if I was able to do that it may save some time.
Thanks for your help!!!
