When I was lacing the scroll frame for the Poppies project, I used a single layer of bias binding as the material through which to insert the lacing.

I should have used a double layer. After all this time, and repeated tightenings, the bias binding is showing serious signs of wear.

I’ve had to re-lace two or three entire sections during the course of the project, starting new lacing holes because the old ones have started to tear and wouldn’t take being under tension anymore.
