There is no metallic in it and no colour. What it offers instead is a finished edge: it covers a seam, gives a hem somewhere to stop, and reads as deliberate rather than unadorned.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBlack vestments are worn on the days when restraint is the point. A Requiem, Good Friday, a funeral. This trim is made for exactly those days, when a gold galloon would be wrong and a raw edge would be worse.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSuggested Uses\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFuneral palls and casket palls\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlack chasubles, stoles and copes for Requiem Masses\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGood Friday and All Souls' paraments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCovering seams and finishing edges on any dark vestment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWorking With It\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGimp is forgiving. The looped edges let it ease around a curve far better than a flat woven braid, so it will follow the shoulder line of a chasuble or the corner of a pall without puckering. Stitch through the centre channel and the loops stay proud.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is also useful well beyond black sets — on any vestment where you want the edge defined but not decorated.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSold by the yard.\u003c\/strong\u003e Swatch samples are approximately 2\" x 3\" and are for colour checking only.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ecclesiastical Sewing","offers":[{"title":"By The Yard - Trim Sold by the yard","offer_id":49177540002048,"sku":null,"price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"SWATCH SAMPLE size 2\" x 3\" approx.
