i do now and boy am i glad, lol. Here is how i did it. Get a rolled hem foot for your sewing machine and do a zig zag stitch with your stitch length at .5-1 depending on your machine. Feed the fishline through the curl of the foot as you sew and it works great. It takes A LOT longer. I made shells for a knows designer and she didnt know i did it till I told her, lol. She said unless she looked at it close she couldn't tell. You can use 25-50 lb fishline depending on the brand. Some 50lb will be too big but i have found some brands run smaller. I regularly use 25 and 30 lb.
