Here are my ideas for ways to interpret the edge designs for my chosen fabric.
1) Above, a simple edge - the fabric has been pleated and beads sewn into the folds.
2) Below (on its own and with the design) - a more fanciful edge. This uses the idea from an earlier sample of pod shapes stitched on felt, cut out (as one piece) and applied to the edge. I stitched a couple more pods directly onto the fabric. However, the machine stitching did not stand out against the bold colours, so I added the pink cord (French knitting). Underneath are more loops of French knitted cord picking up the turquoise from the fabric - I used a little knitting mill so the cord is very quick to make by the metre.

These edges are gorgeous - I love the loopy one and the colours you have worked with.
These are beautiful, your design and colours are fabulous, it makes the edges so much more interesting.
