What is Bias Binding Tape of 25mm Used for?
Bias binding tape is a little strip of fabric that is cut diagonally or on the bias, making it a little more flexible and also that perfect bit of give or stretchiness. This stretchiness is important because this bit of fabric is used to give your fabric a crisp finish around the curves and corners. Our 25mm bias binding tape is a favourite amongst sewists as it gives a perfect finish to the necklines, armholes, hems, and seams of clothing.
They are particularly useful for craft projects as well, especially when you want to give a decorative outline to placemats and tote bags. Conforming to the curves without any puckering or wrinkling, it adds structure to your project while keeping the seams tidy.
Our bias binding tape is made from cotton fabrics so that your work withstands the test of time. They are also washable and available in multiple colours to suit your project’s palette.
The 25mm bias binding tape is a sewing essential that everyone from weekend hobby sewers and seasoned dressmakers use. It’s easy to apply, and it can blend or contrast with your sewing project, depending on your desired outcome.
How to Use Bias Binding Tape
It is very simple to use our 25mm bias binding tape. Here are the steps you can follow if you are using it for the first time.
1. You can start by measuring and cutting your bias binding tape to fit the edge you’re finishing. You can add a little extra for overlap.
2. Unfold one edge of the tape and place it along the edge of your fabric, with the right sides facing each other.
3. You can now stitch along the crease of the unfolded edge to attach it to your fabric.
4. In the next step, fold the tape over the raw edge, which is the other side of the fabric.
5. Finally, tuck the raw edge inside and neatly stitch close to the edge to finish.
6. Once that is done, don’t forget to press with an iron for a crisp and professional finish.
