Cutting Directions:
  • Lay the fabric flat and fold the right sides together, overlapping approximately 13". Mark as shown in the diagram.
  • Use the remainder of the fabric to make bias tape and an optional pocket.
  • Cut 2" wide Bias Strips of the fabric to have approximately 5 yards if 1/2" wide double folded bias tape. This gives you ample back ties for people who like to wrap the ties around and tie them in the front.
  • Join the bias strips and press.
Note:The easiest way to make this Bias Tape is by using a Bias Tape maker.
This was my first time working with this tool and I wouldn't be without it for any other bias tape projects! Find on line Bias Tape Maker sources here.
