To maximize your fringe and minimize your waste, you will want to run the fringe turf the length of the putting green on each side first then the two widths. The grain of the fringe turf must run the same direction all around the putting green.

Roll out the fringe turf over one side the length of the shaped putting green

Over lap the entire roll of fringe turf just enough to cover the shape of your putting green on one side the length of your putting green.

Feeling the shaped putting green under the fringe, nail down the fringe into the sub base using 4 inch galvanized nails with small heads 2 inches out into the fringe from where the seam of the putting green turf and fringe turf will meet. Place the nails every six inches the entire length of your fringe turf.

Nailing between the rows of stitching will hide the nails

Next come out 1 foot into the fringe turf and nail down the fringe every foot the entire length of your fringe turf.

Next cut along the outside perimeter where the fringe meets your border. Be sure to replace the blade on your utility knife every 8 to 10 feet of turf you are cutting. Your goal is to cut through the fringe and not rip through it.

You now ready to cut the fringe where the putting green and fringe turf meet. Using the edge of your shaped putting green as a guide cut the fringe turf.

Nail down the fringe turf 1 inch out into the fringe every six inches the entire length of the fringe. Nailing the fringe at the seam and a foot out from the seam will anchor and secure the fringe turf in place and make for a very tight fit.

Do this for the entire perimeter of fringe turf.
