Hi Adele Thank you for your answer:
'The Oxford online dictionary defines a galloon as "a narrow ornamental strip of fabric, typically a silk braid or piece of lace, used to trim clothing or finish upholstery" At dictionary.com I got: "a braid or trimming of worsted, silk or rayon tinsel, gold or silver, etc., usually having scalloping along both' fits my need the best, especially when you point out that the 'usually' means that it can have straight edges too. Other replies carry the comment that galloon can be used for trims that are applied to fabric, so they also apply. My thanks also to all of you who took the trouble to answer this tricky question. I knew there would be some of you with the answer. Happy lacemaking Alex - To unsubscribe send email to majord...@arachne.com containing the line: unsubscribe lace y...@address.here.
