An upholstery shop should
be able to serge the edges. Serging is like binding the raw edges, only it's
done with thread, not a another piece of fabric or carpet. The seams of your
t-shirts are probably serged.
Kate - the sewing machine
expert - are there any home sergers that could handle a job like this? I know
mine won't.
