This width works well for binding the bottom of petticoats or binding the edge of a cloak. It may also be used as a garter or hat trim, binding a pocketbook or houswife as well as many other uses. In the The Proceedings of the Old Bailey, London in 1773 a man “went to a public house to take a description of the man; they said he was dressed in a white waistcoat with black binding”. When hand sewing this linen try 35/2 black linen thread.
