Cheating is baaad

[skwairpeg.livejournal.com]

Okay grrrls, remember that butterfly bag I made? Welp, I goofed. I wasn't thinking when I made the straps, and instead of folding them in and stitching things up so the raw edges are tucked away safely inside, I was a lazy ass and just folded them in half and sewed along the egde.

Now things are fraying.

I was thinking I could cover up the fraying edges by maybe sewing some sort of ribbon or something onto the straps... but I'm just not sure if that's the best idea or not. Does anyone have an idea or two that might be better -- other than removing the straps and re-doing them, which I don't wnt to do because I don't have enough of that fabric left to make new straps...?

I promise, I'm _this_ close to figuring out how I want to work with pictures here. I have them all on my website, I just haven't figured out how to get them HERE. So anyway, http://www.skwairpeg.com/craft%20page%20links/Other%20stuff.html there's the link to the page where the pics are at -- the bag is at the very bottom of said page.

Thanks in advance, grrlies...
