BINDING
The binder is used to apply commercial as
well as self-fabric bias to an unfinished edge.
This colourful trim is attractive when
applied to children’s wear, aprons and
household textiles. It is a practical finish for
seam edges that ravel and for making bound
seams.
Inserting the Binding
Commercial single fold bias tape is inserted
from the right into slot in binder scroll.
Cut binding diagonally to
form a long point.
Insert pointed end
into slot and pull
through scroll.
Self-fabric bias binding should be cut
15-16” wide on true bias.
I Insert unfolded binding directly
into opening at end of scroll and
pull through.
As binding passes through scroll, the raw
edges are turned in.
