Piping can be made by covering cord with strips of bias cut fabric. The cord comes in a range of thicknesses and is readily available from fabric and upholstery stores. You can often get piping premade with different fabric patterns and colors. It is sewn in along the edge of the bed, quilt, or cushion. Search on Fabric Piping and you can find some examples online.

What would go well with a charcoal gray suit?

I’m a woman, btw. I have to attend a formal dinner which requires that I be in a suit (a blazer and a pencil skirt). I have this charcoal gray suit and I’d like some advice about what type and color of blouse would go well with it, as well as the color of the shoes and bag. I want to look a little edgy yet sophisticated and not boring. I have fair skin-not pale. And dark brown hair. Thanks!
