Creating a ruffle is a cute way to spice up a project and describes when a strip of fabric is gathered in order to create a rippling effect.   Let Professor Pincushion show you how easy it is to create a ruffle, using mainly just a basting stitch.  After that, it's just a case of gathering and you can choose how big or little you want the ruffle to be. The more you pull those stitches, the more ruffled and fuller it'll look. There should be more ruffles in the world!
