Quilt Binding / Bias Tape ~ How to Make Your Own



For the first couple of years of my quilting experience, I did not know how to do this. This is one of, if not the Most useful thing that I have ever learned as a quilter. It can be used in other crafts as well. Personally, I've used it for quilts, wall hangings, diaper bags, changing pads, covering the seams in a quilted purse or bag, and pillows, just to name a few.
If you have any questions please leave them in the comment section and I will gladly try to clarify anything.
Have a Great day!
