How To Make Continuous Bias Binding From A Rectangle

There are several ways to go about cutting and sewing bias binding tape. They've all got their pro's and con's. I'm going to show you my favourite method, but first I'll discuss the strip-by-strip method and the continuous method using a square of fabric.

Whichever method you use you'll start with deciding how wide you want your finished binding to be and multiply that by four. For example if you want a 1/4 inch wide finish on your hem you want to cut 1 inch wide strips. (unless you want double fold bias binding in which case you multiply by six).

Two Uses Tuesday Linky Party




It's been said that all good things must come to an end. Fun family getaways, this year and at this point in time... this party. It's been wonderful co-hosting Two Uses Tuesday but it is time to close up shop and move forward.

A very special thank you to my blogging buddy and our hostess, Sarah, for putting this party together for us every week. If it weren't for Sarah the party may never have got done out each week. She is one super organised woman.

But we still have a little bit of party left! You have two more chances to link up, this week at party 107 and next week at party 108!

Then, on 12/19, for Two Uses Tuesday 109 we will have our last set of regular features (from party 108) PLUS the best of the best from the past year. Double features! Sweet!

Thank you for joining us on this linkup party adventure!

    I have absolutely loved joining in with these throughout the past year, Two Uses Tuesday has kept me creative and actively engaged in a lovely community which has inspired me to stay and be creative. I've got lots of cute Christmassy ideas for the rest of December so I'm hoping they help to see it out in style! Are there any plans at all to keep TUT alive, or will 2016 be the last year it runs? - Tasha
