I've been sewing for 62 years and I really like your way of doing this - I absolutely hate interfacings!!! The contrasting fabric was very cute and for those who don't like to use a contrasting fabric, you can make the bias using your dress fabric. If you don't want it showing on the outside, just reverse it and sew it on the inside.
I'm doing some sewing after years of not sewing and you showed me something new. I'd have never thought of leaving the bias binding double... Very much simplifies the application. Yay, for new ideas.
Apart from when your hand covered the bias merge, this is a very good video. Excellent dialogue, instructions and explanations... Good lighting... Good sound... Good advance preparation and well thought out..... I have been sewing for 55 years and I learned something new here... Same thing with your set-in sleeve video... Straight, and to the point... Good, down to earth and easy to understand, without excess verbiage, without non-stop unrelated nattering and without over-used and excessive superlatives which so many other videos have. YOU ARE A GOOD TEACHER.... WELL DONE KAY ❗❗❗ 😊 👍 😊
How do I sow fashionable, tight pants to my husband and still leave enough room for his abnormaly large male member? He hates getting that big ol' trouser snake squeezed, and I can sure understand him. Thank you 😊
To all these people insulting this skilled & talented lady...if you look when she started sewing the bias, she didn't start sewing directly at the beginning of strip. (Sometimes if u watch things more than once & slow speed of video if you need to do so, you can figure it out yourself.) She left about a 1 1/2 inch of bias at beginning to tuck the end piece of the bias into the beginning piece. I will explain exactly how she did it so you know but first... Wow. Imagine you were in her shoes reading all these comments. If you were her, could you have did what she did better? Obviously not since you came here. Do u have a TH-cam channel? Her skills? Do you want to share your sewing skills w/the world only to have 90% of ppl be nasty about something you couldn't even help? No wonder she didn't respond to even one comment, not even the 10% of ppl who were nice. How hurtful. There was NO WAY she could have only done the ending part one handed...and somehow sewed it. She needed her right hand to guide it and left hand to put pressure on bias after she tucked bias in and once tucked, it was to thick to pin. So, what she did was: in the end she literally opened up bias and tucked the strip into the middle of first part she skipped as she left left room for tucking, about 1 1/2 inches, and put pressure on it (with her left hand) and continued to sew it shut. Now she said she TUCKED it. Otherwise, she would have had to just laid the bias on top of first piece or butted up the edges. I'm not sure why this was so hard to figure out. I have never used bias before either except on quilting and that finishes differently as to the finish of this type of project. Tucking a piece of bias into another one isn't something to get so upset about. Are you all this upset because you couldn't see that 5 second part at the end where she opened up the folded over bias and inserted other end of bias and sewed it shut? I don't know if you people are angry that you honestly couldn't logically figure out how to finish the binding or are upset she didnt have a tiny camera glued at the top of her sewing machine pointing downward onto her work. I've watched many sewing tutorials and even crochet tutorials and where ppl are doing things close together with their hands, and because of this, there will be some visual limitations. If you want to learn from TH-cam...for FREE...you need to accept these visual limitations. I encourage you to be GRATEFUL. Thank God this lady spent her time to show her skill & talents. I am. If you are that upset and unhappy, rather than complain you can pay $30 a class at JoAnnes (and not get this in-depth of knowledge) or you can go to fashion design/dressmaker school & you'll be able to see everything clearly. First hand help w/teachers etc. You will also clearly see a bill of $60,00-100,000 depending on which school you choose. Hope this helps. You probably don't want my help...but I know she didn't make this video to be insulted either. I never met this lady or heard of her until today. I subbed. I "liked." I enjoyed the video. I learned something new. Hope this helps our gratitude & prospective! :) When you are being blessed and given a gift of someone else's knowledge for free...don't throw it in their face because you don't like the wrapping paper. (Ex: because its not 100% perfect to you or you find what you think is a major flaw when its really only a minor issue that she could have easily explained or even have done an update video. But when we treat ppl like dirt, I wouldn't be surprised if she doesn't allow comments at all anymore. Honestly, after these....I wouldn't. Pls ppl. Think b4 you react. Respond instead and put yourself in her or anyone else's shoes. Thanks. God bless. 😄
Kay Whitt: Hi. Thank you so much.I wanted you to know how much your video helped me. And I understood perfectly about bias. When I saw you skip about 1 1/2 inches at beginning when u began sewing, I assumed we would be tucking it. What else could we do with it? Butt raw edges together? Overlap it? That would look hideous. Haha. Anyway, ppl will always find things to complain abt. I did feel it necessary to explain what you did and as a sewer, crocheter and a quilter myself, sewing is my weakest, esp making clothing. I don't have the courage to make a TH-cam channel. I admire your courage to have one & to allow comments. I felt really upset abt these comments. There was no possibility you could have guided with your right hand & you had to press down with your left to keep all that in place. Even if u "loved" pinning, it was too thick to pin & redundant.. There was NOTHING ELSE you could have done differently to "move your hand" so say the complainers. After all, it is not rocket science" and you explained yourself well. So I wanted you to know all that. I just found you today. I think your a great teacher. My comment to the people follows this one. I subb'd & liked. God bless. Shelly
A top camera view is needed at the sewing machine ....your left hand is in the way...I can hear you describing it but seeing it at the same time would be good 😊
I have watched this video over and over - - I love it! Instructions are clear and camera work excellent. At my first attempt attaching the bias trim to a neckline it came out perfect and the joining of the two ends was easy to do. I couldn't see details because of your hands obstructing things, but really it became apparent how to tuck in one end to the other for a neat finish. Love the sundresses and Kay Whitt!
HI Kay:I used to see you on: "Sewing with Nancy" from time to time. I enjoy watching you! Lovely dresses! I've been sewing 57 years! Great video. Diane
Super well done. You are also very articulate and I like the added tips about a large print is good for a two piece pattern, etc. I need now to find how to make the bias tape which has always been a little hard for me. I do agree with the previous comment that I couldn’t see how you closed the end of the tapes.
Lovely bias facing. Asian/Middle Eastern tailor demos often show narrower bias facings. Not often is pressing shown during construction, with their apparent fine dexterity, to stitch a double fold.Your 2" strip allowed me easier control for the directed outcome, because you pressed first producing a neater, crisp controllable edge.
Hi Kay, thanks for sharing your skills. I missed the tuck when you joined the bias because of the camera angle. Also, can I apply woven bias to knit/stretch fabric where no stretch is required?
Thanks Kay. Love your work. Am off to try that right now on a sundress for my adult daughter. First though I have to find how to cut and sew the bias binding. lol. always something to hold me up.
Your studio lighting is EXCELLENT! I could actually see; you and your sewing studio and even your machine. Thanks for taking the time to properly set-up your how-to videos for optimal viewing. Others could learn a lot from you. Thanks Again.
When I learned how to bind quilts, I thought, "this is pretty neat. I wonder if we could use these binding strips and the skills learned on something else?". Well, you showed us a practical and nice looking thing to do with binding. Thank you! And I like the way that you tucked the ends in. It's less confusing than the way I was taught to tuck quilt binding in.
you probably dont give a damn but does someone know a tool to log back into an Instagram account?? I was stupid forgot the account password. I would love any assistance you can give me.
@Braylen Korbyn i really appreciate your reply. I got to the site through google and I'm trying it out now. I see it takes a while so I will reply here later with my results.
Hi- I have been collecting your patterns for several years now. I look forward to more. While home so much this year, I will make a few house dresses using them. I just discovered your videos and love seeing you in person. I am just down the road in College Station.
Did you say how wide your bias started out? I guess I could go back and look…lol. This is like binding a quilt. I use 21/2” for my quilts. Sew cute. Thanks for sharing
Absolutely I love it. I hate use the facing. Always came out from the neck. Maybe I couldnt make properly 😅 But this way definitely easy for me. I wondering is it work for chiffon or satin fabric ? 🤔🙄
Great tutorial, many thanks and I LOVE the bright, fun fabrics. You mentioned using border prints, do you have a video on cutting and using these by any chance?
You explain very well. I can live without a sleeve board but not without a tailors ham. And I always add lining to my dresses, personal preference I feel like they look more professional looking than home made ;)
@@Timetraveler1111MN it is called a ham hehe. I am making dresses for me and my girl. I am tired of dresses at the store with very low necklines and they are very short and on top of that very expensive without lining. I am following frocks & frolics sewing patterns and Angela Kane sewing tv channels
I’m curious how you did the dress in the middle with the v slit. Did you do a regular facing for v part and then the bias trim for the neck? I’ve used this method on a shirt and it works great. Have an old nightgown pattern that does this that I’ve used for years. Good to see a video about this.
I’m a quilter and wanting to dive into garment making so this is a perfect solution for me!!! I have my bias tape making down pat because it’s what I use for my quilt bindings. Thank you so much for sharing.
She was in too much of a rush. The technique is good, but I would trim off some of that seam allowance as it is peeking out from some of the final stitching.
I learned a lot in first two minutes. I want to trim up my Nordic Viking dress well because the wool was very expensive and it’s more fine, but edge needs to look nice. I haven’t figured how to do the sleeves yet. I plan to make more dresses I am a beginning sew level.
I think this was excellent, overall. But I can't get my mind around why you did not trim the seam allowance. It seems (no pun) that going back and trying to correct all the threads from the frayed edge that shows would hurt the construction , or they would get worse with laundering.
I liked the look but couldn't see what you did to match up the cut edges, only your hands. Also, what seam allowance did you use to apply it to the neckline? Sorry but I'm no more informed that before I watched it.
Thank you! I have to do this on my first sewing project and the pattern instructions are not at all clear. I think they miss out about 3 whole steps. I will have to go back and watch this video a couple more times to really get it, but it is a big help!
This is an older video so don't know if anyone will know this but the dress on the far left - sleeveless with the green binding around the armholes - anyone know what pattern # it is? Thanks.
Great tutorial did you use the same type of fabric you used for the dress as well as to make the binding or was it a more stretchy fabric, I loved how you used it on the dress
Nice video. I like the way you used the bias on the outside. Nice touch. I have usually applied it to the inside but will use this for decorative interest. What is the pattern of the dress with the southwest print? Love the combination of fabrics that you used.
There are too many layers and it looks bulky. I wonder If is it possible to sew the bias on the face and turn and press it. Than go on the wrong side and finish edges?
First - this is a very good video however, I agree with a lot of the comments, your hands were in the way and I couldn't see how you were starting and finishing the edge of the facing. Second - it would be great if you could put the pattern number of the dress you were working on, I love the dress and would love to make it, I have been looking for a simple sundress pattern and that would definitely be one I would like to make. And last but not least - I LOVE the pin wall hanging behind you!! Please let me know where you got it!! Thank you,
Does anybody know the name of the fabric or the manufacturer of the fabric for the dress she is demonstrating on? I realize this video is 3 years old but I am wondering where I can find that fabric, or one similar. Thanks
great tutorial, nice "pins" on the wall. Great camera work; forget about all the comments about your hand being in the way... Now where did I put my diamond ring so that next time I sew I can look like that also. I normally sew in my pj's. Time to get to that hairdresser and look more professional.
She can ignore the comments about her hands covering the most important bit of the video, if this wasn't a tutorial. The least she can do is acknowledge the comments, even if it was in the description box!
I would definitely have trimmed the edge a bit just to avoid or have to tuck in the treads that are showing on the right side of the dress. Otherwise this is a great and easy way to sew armholes and neckholes.
Hah. This is so much easier than the way I learned to apply bias tape to edges (starting from the right side and than "stitch in the ditch"ing. Can't wait to try it...
Rara Avis Rara how you learned to apply bias is correct. It depends on what you're apply the bias to that will determine which application to use. This is just another way to apply bias and really showcase the accent. If I was applying bias to a garment using this technique, after pressing and turning the bias to the outside of the garment, I would finish it by sewing it by hand. I think it looks more professional. especially on a dress.
I've been sewing for 62 years and I really like your way of doing this - I absolutely hate interfacings!!! The contrasting fabric was very cute and for those who don't like to use a contrasting fabric, you can make the bias using your dress fabric.

The section I needed the most, joining the ends, was hidden by your hands!
Yes couldn’t see it!
At the end, you put the raw end in between of the folded end 😊 That’s why you start about an inch in at the beginning. Hope it makes sence 😊
@@tovethomsen7545 thank you🌷
My goodness, the bright prints are wonderful. And the dress with the border and the one with five different fabrics are so clever and beautiful.

This is quite a detailed tutorial on making your own bias "strips" and putting them onto your project. TY for sharing it with us.
You’re a very good teacher...been sewing years but there’s always new stuff to try.
Excellent instructions & appreciate the tip regarding selecting fabric. Most helpful!

Great tutorial, many thanks and I LOVE the bright, fun fabrics. You mentioned using border prints, do you have a video on cutting and using these by any chance?
Your machine is very nice and not noisy. And the safety pins are amazing
Question- do you trim the neck and arm lines before applying the bias or do you use the neckline and arm holes from the pattern?
I have the same question. Sorry yours wasn’t answered.
You make it look so easy. I'll finally try. I could see everything I need.
You explain very well. I can live without a sleeve board but not without a tailors ham.
And I always add lining to my dresses, personal preference I feel like they look more professional looking than home made ;)

Jh ca. Fu. FMaddie Cedeno
How wide of a seam allowance did you use when you first sewed the bias on?
All fabric colours r very very nice and superb stitch
I liked the look but couldn't see what you did to match up the cut edges, only your hands. Also, what seam allowance did you use to apply it to the neckline? Sorry but I'm no more informed that before I watched it.
Very informative video, but from 4:15 to 5:40, I could not see how you closed off. Your hands were blocking the process .
Mam I want formal frock cutting and stitching please the video or link me.
Thank you! I have to do this on my first sewing project and the pattern instructions are not at all clear. I think they miss out about 3 whole steps. I will have to go back and watch this video a couple more times to really get it, but it is a big help!

Beautifully done. i love your choice of colours and styles.
It was impossible to see what you were doing since your hand was in the way. I can’t wait to try your method. Thank you
I love bias trim!, your demonstration was smooth and easy :)
I love the concept using the bias binding.
Great tutorial did you use the same type of fabric you used for the dress as well as to make the binding or was it a more stretchy fabric, I loved how you used it on the dress
Unable to see at the tucking point what you do because of hands blocking camera.
Purple Bobbins I love you and this
Easy to follow.I love your fabrics.
excellent tutorial.
Nice video. I like the way you used the bias on the outside. Nice touch. I have usually applied it to the inside but will use this for decorative interest. What is the pattern of the dress with the southwest print? Love the combination of fabrics that you used.
How to cutt the strip which is use neck line and 4 inches or 2?
Beautiful I love Kay’s designs patterns
There are too many layers and it looks bulky. I wonder If is it possible to sew the bias on the face and turn and press it. Than go on the wrong side and finish edges?
Great tips, but would like to see closer up how you tucked the ends in together. LOVE the fabric. Who makes that?!
Thank you so much, really a great learning,
Very..very..nice
Excellent tutorial! What types of neckline and armhole finishes can you recommend to replace facings for garments made of knit fabric?
What,pattern are you,using?
I enjoyed this tutorial very much. Thank you for doing it.
First - this is a very good video however, I agree with a lot of the comments, your hands were in the way and I couldn't see how you were starting and finishing the edge of the facing.

And last but not least - I LOVE the pin wall hanging behind you!! Please let me know where you got it!!

Can I do this on a knit tank top?
Мне понравился такой метод обработки. Спасибо.
Nice but would have been great to see an up close view of the neckline join. Only saw your hand!
I love the concept of this video and your accent is fun.
How wide did you make the bias trim?
You could do an all-in-one facing to reduce bulk in the shoulder.
Does anybody know the name of the fabric or the manufacturer of the fabric for the dress she is demonstrating on? I realize this video is 3 years old but I am wondering where I can find that fabric, or one similar. Thanks
the fabric is from Cranston Print Works!
I know how to use a bias strip but I also like how you uses her print fabric in a unique design
could not see the finished stage of the neck join.Camera view poor. your hand blocked the view
Could you phrase your comment more politely?
Check out any quilting video that teaches bias tape binding - enjoy!
great tutorial, nice "pins" on the wall. Great camera work; forget about all the comments about your hand being in the way... Now where did I put my diamond ring so that next time I sew I can look like that also. I normally sew in my pj's. Time to get to that hairdresser and look more professional.
She can ignore the comments about her hands covering the most important bit of the video, if this wasn't a tutorial. The least she can do is acknowledge the comments, even if it was in the description box!
Yep. I don’t know what people are not seeing. It was very clear to me. If you sew, you should know.
It's amazing how fabric choice can give away a home made garment.
Do you eliminate the seam allowance before you put on the bias?
Interesting that you put it on folded. I think people might have liked to see how you cut the basis edge
I would definitely have trimmed the edge a bit just to avoid or have to tuck in the treads that are showing on the right side of the dress. Otherwise this is a great and easy way to sew armholes and neckholes.
Nice explanation
Don't join the sides before finishing the neck
@@rajeevimuralidhara8028 Thanks for your information
Yes!!! Exactly what I needed. Thank you!!
Hah. This is so much easier than the way I learned to apply bias tape to edges (starting from the right side and than "stitch in the ditch"ing. Can't wait to try it...
Rara Avis Rara how you learned to apply bias is correct. It depends on what you're apply the bias to that will determine which application to use. This is just another way to apply bias and really showcase the accent. If I was applying bias to a garment using this technique, after pressing and turning the bias to the outside of the garment, I would finish it by sewing it by hand. I think it looks more professional. especially on a dress.

Thank u so much, this is my problem as a beginner, neckline because i dont have pattern
Very helpful...Thanks
What are the safety pins on the walls for?
Rubina it looks like a design piece for a sewing room.
Which bias do you use on a stretch fabric?
