How to choose ribbon, trimmings and embellishments

Choose trims that can be cared for in the same way as the item they decorate, so check washability and colourfastness before sewing onto clothing or cushions. Width and weight should suit the base fabric without dragging it.

• Sew-on trims are most durable; iron-on and hotfix trims are quicker but suit lighter-use items.
• Lace, braid and pompom trims are sold by length, so measure the edge and add extra for corners and joins.
• Satin ribbon frays at cut ends; seal them with a diagonal cut or a fray stopper.
• Buttons, sequins and beads are small parts, so avoid them on items for babies and under-3s.
