Now your strips are ready for your bias tape-maker or use the fusible tape-maker!
One yard of fabric 45" wide made about 40 yards (correction to book page 39) of bias strips that were 7/8" wide. If you wanted strips about 1 1/4" wide, the yard of fabric will give you about 35 yards of bias strips. What a savings over purchasing ready made strips.
I will take the time to make my strips, then roll them up carefully, so they aren't distorted. They are ready to pull out for any project!
Next blog will share another way to cut and sew a yard of fabric for bias binding strips! There are quite a few wonderful methods. Try each one and see what suits you!
Happy Sewing!
