Have followed steps and ready to sew ribbing back in. Looks like this ribbing doesn’t have much stretch so I think its going to pucker. Any suggestions? Is there an alternative that will still give me a finished look? If not, last resort, I will cut the entire ribbing out and go with the raw edge look but not my first choice.
