Edging issues

Edgings are officially my nemesis. 

I have been trying to edge this vintage hanky FOREVER and let me tell you, I am over it!!


This was my first attempt---it was ok until I got to the corner. 


And then it went wrong--notice how the tiny rings are going everywhere but straight. 

So then this past weekend I went with this...

This one I just tatted straight onto the hanky, and it went ok for rounds one and two, but round three is not playing nicely. 


We'll see what it looks like tomorrow when it's dry...

I'm not holding out too much hope, unfortunately.
