[@patricia6990]

Great video now I will know which one to use for the right job☺️

[@Deb_at_MeMadeMakes]

So glad you found it helpful. I always worry when putting a video out if I get my thoughts across well enough 😊

[@debbiebaines6110]

Great tutorial very informative, will give a bound bag a try ,I've always avoided it as it scares me a bit,thanks Deb

[@Deb_at_MeMadeMakes]

Your very welcome glad its been helpful x

[@nikkiastbury8141]

Very informative. Thank you. I often use a zipper foot when sewing binding. I find I can see the stitch line better And manipulate the gusset piece better. And yes, when binding, go slow is a must. Nx

[@Deb_at_MeMadeMakes]

It's definitely the first rule isn't it.

Great video, I love your FOE but I use it the other way around with the matt side outside!

[@Deb_at_MeMadeMakes]

Oh interesting I will have to give that a go next time xx

[@CathyDavies-nr1cd]

Aww Deb. Thank you so much for doing this tutorial. I always shy away from bias binding as I found I struggled with doing it. But your tutorial on applying it has given me a boost to give it another bash! Your way of explaining it makes it sound so simple 😂. Where oh where did you get your stiletto from? I have not been able to find one here in U.K.?

[@Deb_at_MeMadeMakes]

Thank you so pleased you have found it helpful.
I got my stiletto from etsy around 3 years ago I do love it x
