Ms. Carrie!... my BFF recently made an apron for which she needed to make bias strips. ....yes'm, I'm sending this to her! And, yes'm! ...imbsticking this in my own sewing Playlist! Thank you!!!
You’ve done a great demonstration and clarification of what I consider the best way to make bias strips. Now w, if you want to get cute, you can patch different fabrics together into a square, and then proceed as if it is a single fabric, and you have continuous patchwork binding. In addition to quilts, it makes a fun and whimsical touch as an accent on clothing, for example, a surprise binding on a hem or lining. And I like it in maximalist Asian-inspired clothing and decor.
Yay, for solutions!! It's nice to know I'm not the only one who thought this looked like a good method, only to find out it didn't quite work as I thought it was supposed to. I'm very happy that the solution in the video was something you were looking for, and now you and I both can create some wonderful bias strips. Thanks for watching!!!!
It was a new method for me! I guess I’ve not needed to make much bias. It was interesting to me that the magazine’s instructions simply didn’t work as stated. Like I said in the video…. I just might be ‘late to the party’! Thanks for watching and commenting!!!

I LOVE your patchwork binding idea!!!! Thanks for sharing ❤️ A fancy, but hidden, ‘Hong Kong’ seam finish always makes me smile!
I have done the second method before and had the same problem that you had. Your solution is wonderful!
Thank you!!

I’ve always ever done the second way with marking done before sewing. Thanks for the tour thru bias tape making.
