Mary, when I used the premade rolled up pie crust, I would roll it out a little thinner, leave about an inch overhand to tuck under, then use your thumb and two fingers to pinch and flute the edge, encouraging it to stand at attention while you are working around the pie pan edge.
I make butter pie crust now, and it is much harder to work with, IMO, so I am lucky to get it any which way, just not split. My pies look "rustic." Haha :\

so lucky, they did come out prettier when I used those premade pie crusts. I'm trying thistle's buttermilk pie crust recipe. So far I liked the way it rolled out. My problem is that I can't roll out a perfect circle, even when I give it that 1/4 turn each time I roll it. If it taste's good I'd like to use this instead. Next time I'm going to try your method of making it bigger and fold under first.
