Goddammit, Google is once again less than useful (sew! I mean sew! not embroider!), so here's my question for everyone who knows more about sewing than I do:
I want to attach letters to a jacket. I want to cut these letters out from reflecting tape, for reasons. And for fraying reasons, and a neater finish, I would like there to not be any raw edges.
And I'm not sure how to do that.
Turning the raw edges under is one option, but since letters tend to have a lot of curves and reflecting plastic fabric probably doesn't take well to ironing, that's gonna be a mess of puckering.
I thought of using a very small zigzag to attach them (all but buttonhole density), but that's gonna eat through miles of thread and not look very neat.
There's probably no way to cleanly turn something like a letter A outside out, even if I stencil around the opening.
Idk, am I missing some brilliant, obvious solution here? And if not, what would you go for?
