Hello,
If anyone knows how to do fishline hem (I think its called, or some may know of it by flounce hem or ruffles)I would really appreciate directions on how to do this. I am doing a long skirt for my Major Work in Textiles and Design for High School and it is a long layered skirt and each layer/tier is flounced/ or ruffled with fishline. I know you pull/stretch the fabric as you sew on a zigzag stitch. But I need to know how to end and start the fishing line? Like do I fold the line and sew over it or what?
Thank you very much

This is a link to a skirt which is similar to what I am making-
