With its versatility and decorative potential, bias binding is a valuable tool for both novice and experienced sewers. Bias binding is a narrow strip of fabric, typically cut on the bias (diagonal) of the grain, offering distinct advantages for finishing raw edges:

Key Features:

    • Stretchiness: Thanks to the diagonal cut, bias binding possesses a natural stretch, making it perfect for conforming to curves and rounded edges without puckering or bunching.
    • Durability: It reinforces raw edges, preventing fraying and adding structure to garment details like necklines, armholes, and hems.
    • Decorative Touch: Available in various colours, patterns, and materials, it can add a pop of colour, texture, or contrast to your project.

Types of Bias Binding:

    • Single fold: The most basic type, folded once with raw edges encased inside.
    • Double fold: Folded twice, creating a smooth finish on both sides.
    • Double fold with picot edge: Features a decorative lace-like edging.

Common Uses:

    • Finishing garment edges: Necks, armholes, hemlines, cuffs, pockets, etc.
    • Binding quilts and blankets: Adds a neat and polished look.
    • Creating straps and ties: For bags, aprons, or clothing details.
    • Decorative edging: On pillows, tablecloths, napkins, and other home decor items.
