Bias binding is one of the best tools to create clean necklines and armholes and more. But not all bias binding is made equal. Here I am demonstrating how to use home made bias tape or store bought with the double creases ironed out.
VIDEO CHAPTERS:
00:00 Overview of this type of tape
01:30 Sewing in the fold, sew the bis to the underside of the fabric
03:00 Cut back the seam allowance
03:40 Fold the bias over to the front so it covers the stitching line
04:18 Topstitch the bias 1-2mm off the folded edge
05:26 Iron the bias binding
