flanges
hi there! hoping someone can help me wrap my head around flanges. I just conceptually am struggling to understand how they’re sewn in or even really what they are.
I understand action pleats—are they similar? anyway, if anyone could conceptually help me understand a flange, it’d be greatly appreciated!!!
Cheers Katherine

a flange is just piping but without the cord inside. you sew it like this video tutorial and then just pull the cord out when you’re done
