    THANK YOU for posting this. I've been sewing for a while now but I'm entirely self taught. Your videos have really helped me to get a grasp on basic concepts and this one is one that I've been waiting to see. THANKS! You're a big help!

    Once again, you explained a professional sewing technique in a clear and easy to understand way. I'm super impressed - I make sewing transformation videos but have trouble incorporating these finishing techniques in an easy to understand way for the viewers :) Nice!

    Thank you. I have sewn clothing for 15 years. But mostly sewn facings on cottons or a bias band using knits. I am using a Cashmerette pattern that needed to use bias tape on. I’d never used that before and was feeling frustrated by the directions… I’m a very visual learner. Your video 100% makes sense to me. Thanks so much! I’m eager to finish my dress and I have a lot more courage now for it. Thank you!

    Fabulous video! I'm a beginner and I made a sweatshirt out of a curtain the other day and I wanted to put some bias binding on the neckline and it didn't go well lol mind you it was my very first project tho. But yeah now i see that i should've put stay stitch first and then it would look more presentable :) ! Oh well but practice makes perfect innit xx thank you for great video

    When sewing the permanent top stitching on the right side of the garment, it is MORE important to sew a determined distance from the garment edge, using a measurement that will include the bias tape.

  • @daggischmidt3984
    @daggischmidt3984 9 років тому

    thanks a lot...it never occured to me, that biastape could be used only inside the garment. I've always used it like a binding on quilts and NEVER liked the result. I think this might just be the solution! You made my day!
