Margo,
I've seen plenty of self-fringed bodice ruffles, but can't remember
any skirts having them. Usually they are on the straight, so that the
fringe has stripes. It's a really cool effect!

that my sample bias ruffle takes a gorgeous frayed edge. It almost
looks fluted, or like feathers! Was this technique used at the time
as an edging for skirt frills?
