From Pathfinder Wiki
- Selvage
- the edge of a piece of fabric, specially woven to resist unraveling.
- Bias
- is a line that would go from corner to corner on a square piece of fabric. The bias of a fabric is very stretchy, crossing the fabric's threads at a 45° angle.
- Grain of Fabric
- is the internal lay of the fabric - that is how the threads from which the fabric is woven are arranged. The lengthwise grain is parallel to the selvage, and the crosswise grain is perpendicular to the selvage.
