"Hi! I'm Karen for Expert Village. Put the ribbon on the machine and just sew the bottom. Always reverse a little to knot it. Now, we're going to sew down the top ribbon as close to the edge as possible. Make sure it stays straight with the bottom ribbon. Always reverse a little to knot it and then continue. Stop and readjust whenever you need to. When you get to the end, you're going to fold in again the top and the bottom to match. You could do this ahead of time and press it with an iron, or you can do it like this also is fine. Just fold that up like that and reverse, and then sew down the other side. As close to the edge as possible. Trim all the threads. "
