I sometimes like to make my own Bias Tape/Binding
Cut your fabric on the forty-five degree angle on the cutting board.
Decide how wide you want your binding
quarter inch tape/binding - cut fabric one inch wide
half inch tape/binding - cut fabric one and half inches wide
one inch tape/binding - cut fabric twqo and half inches wide
Fold fabric in half and press well
Fold the edges in quarter inch and press again
Fold the fabric in half again and press
To join two pieces together cut the binding/tape at a forty five degee angle
Remember opposites attract!
Cut the fabric of the joining piece the opposite end
Join the two pieces together at right angles matching the outer pressed creases
Sew the two pieces together and trim
Press the fabric again
Sew onto the edge of what you are making!
