Best Answer

Trimming can mean one of two things:

As a noun, it's an ornamental/decorative piece that you add to a fabric, such as ruffles, piping, tassels, cord, buttons, etc. Anything that adds a decorative element to what you're sewing.

As a verb, trimming is when you use scissors to cut a small amount of fabric. It usually alludes to cutting off excessive seam allowance or cutting loose threads.
