Thank you. You make me feel like a pro!

This is a great tip! Every binding I make is bias cut and almost all are stripes, plaid, windowpane or other prints that work well on a diagonal. Can’t wait to try this one out. Also, thank you for mentioning that you press most of your seams open. Learning garment construction before quilting, I have always been baffled by the idea of pressing to one side. Pressing open helps me line up seams more easily and the reduced bulk is much easier to quilt on my domestic machines.

For some reason, I decided that I wanted a stripped binding on a red and white quilt. I thought I knew how to cut it, but glad I came across your video.

Very clever how you cut your strips for bias binding 🥰. And using Tula’s way of connecting stripes! Thanks for sharing this.

Salamat po for the tip! I'm just a crazy-about-quilting Filipina in the Philippines, where this craft is not popular. That makes me a bit 'abnormal' here. But anyway I find this tip extra ordinarily new about making bias tape. I'm so glad I bumped into this video. Salamat po❤️

I think that is great . You couldn't see that seam. Going to try it on my next quilt. Thanks.

Wow, thank you for sharing this video. Bias binding has always been a bit intimidating to me; I've only done it once. But I love how bias striped binding looks on a finished quilt!

Absolutely fabulous how you matched the stripes on the binding! Thanks to you and Tula!!!
