    This is an oldie but goodie. A very clear and the best tutorial I've seen for the continuous bias tape. Thank you so much!

    I have watched sooo many of these types of videos on how to make continuous bias binding and this is the only one that I have been able to follow. Thank you so much, now I can get my granddaughters quilt completed!!

      I totally agree. Every other video tutorial I've watched on this has been so frustrating. They either go too fast and don't explain things properly or they leave parts out assuming we can read their minds....This tutorial is by far the best explained yet. Thank you so much. I'm in the process of making bias tape right now and this has been so very helpful.

    Thanks! Appreciate you sharing the fabric does *not* need to be a precise square. The extra rectangular shape of fabric (after folding and cutting on the diagonal) is so much more valuable to make as much much bias binding as possible than having a random scrap left over. I've watched countless videos on the process and I wish I saw yours first!
    I agree with others, you should consider doing more videos. Great instruction and clear visual of what you are doing ... truly appreciate you sharing your sewing knowledge!

    Thank God for this video! I spent an hour watching another one, same method, but this video explains that the "tube" is SUPPOSED to be wonky and also shows exactly what that means. The other video didn't specifically mention this and I was getting really frustrated about the whole thing - only to find out I had been doing it right all along even if it looked wrong. THANK YOU!!

    I love the tip to cut the line on the one point....
    Also that channeled cutting ruler
    I saw one even handles it just a week ore so ago. Now it makes sense in how to use it.... I like piped edges... not sure I understood what you’re going to use all your piped bias for.
    Although I remember thinking that channeled ruler wasn’t a thick enough plastic and how careful one would have to be so that kids don’t play with it or it drop and hit a hard floor the wrong way. But now I see a actual need for one of those. I saw it at Joann’s and although they have plenty of cutting guides they rarely have the coolest ones.
    Thanks for your video
    Keep making them.

    • @patsyspencer4746
      @patsyspencer4746  4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      It's an old Rowenta with a water tank. I now use that one for ironing clothing rather than using it in my sewing room. I've had a Rowenta since then, a Reliable, and a Sunbeam. I've seen recommendations all over the spectrum. Some like an old $10 iron from a thrift store, cheap one from WalMart, or some cheaper ones from Amazon. I think it ends up being a matter of personal choice. Sometimes you get lucky & get an iron that lasts a LONG time! And other times, it'll spit, break, doesn't heat up, etc. The struggle is real. :-)

    • @patsyspencer4746
      @patsyspencer4746  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Mine never line up perfectly. I try my best to make the bias width about 2" and, as I roll the tube around while I cut, I probably cut towards the line I have marked. They do not always line up. Does this help? If I know that my bias strips won't be perfect in width, I make them wider so I have room for mistakes! Because I certainly make my share of mistakes!
