Fringe Trim is an ornamental border of threads left loose or formed into tassels or twists. It’s used to edge home accent pieces, window dressings, garments and accessories. It’s an excellent way to add movement to any garment and funk up an otherwise basic hem.  Originally created to prevent a piece of fabric from unraveling, fringe trim was used in place of hemming and  is typically made separately, then sewn onto the garment or piece of home decor.
