Not always too short. I did mine with one length of Todds ribbon that he sells on my 7 3/8 Fieldmaster. I used Dalexs method as well.

Looks good everyone, but the one thing that I don't like about Todd's is the unfinished edge.

I used Todd's ribbon on my straw indy project.

I liked it OK. I am also using it on an old stetson that I have had for 20 years. (Not much of a hat...but immense amount of sentimental value!!!)

I ordered a Todd's ribbon and I really don't like the edge isn't bonded. It just looks sloppy to me.
