border, edging, trim
-- according to Gyldendals Ordbøger.
Some kind of trimming or edging, often decorative.
You could perhaps call it the edge if your text is the instructions for cutting out the material: cut strips for the frill (flæse) along the edge or border of the main piece.
(Here I am guessing wildly, so please ignore if it does not fit.)
