Thanks again for the different tips and tricks!
And thank you for the link to the video Catlar... :thumbsup: That's is the same type of cord as mine and it shows clearly how to join the two ends together. Thank goodness mine is a plain cord so it should be a bit easier than working out the different colours! I will need to be very patient though as it looks VERY fiddly and because the cord is shiny it's slippy too.
It's useful to see how she lays it flat and stitches across it to hold the pieces in place - I wouldn't have thought to do that. And also to unpick it from the binding too.
Was caught up with the other things yesterday so haven't made any progress
