I am considering a grosgrain ridgeline on my newest tarp project. I can't wrap my head around not having to seam seal. I plan to use the method i believe to be the warbonnet style. That is to say: stitch the two panels together with a simple 1/4 inch seam, then sew on the 1 inch grosgrain over the raw top edge. Like

I have read of others using this and not seam sealing wth good results, but i have also read where they leak bad, even on warbonnet tarps. to me, the grosgrain would absorb water then pass it down between the sil panels through the grosgrain stitch, and onto me.
Thoughts? How do you guys do your gg ridgelines?
