My favorite Bias tape maker is the 1" maker by Clover (which ends up making 1/2" double-fold bias tape). Here are some links:
1" Bias Tape Maker (25mm): www.amazon.com/dp/B001703IYW/...
1/2" Bias Tape Maker (12mm): www.amazon.com/dp/B001703IWY/...
Bias tape is my all-time favorite sewing item. I use it for so many projects! And though you can buy it at the store, it's super easy to make your own, with any fabric you like. So pull up a chair and learn more! I'll walk you thru all the steps for understanding bias tape and how to make your own, in any size or fold.

It must be nice to know that something you filmed years ago is still teaching people today! Thank you again for another informative tutorial! 😀

I truly enjoyed your DIY bias tape tutorial. Never in my wildest dreams did I ever think I could make my own. I found your page, watched intently and now excited to try it myself. Never boring or long; you are very upbeat and positive. Thank you!

@jgsawka Год назад

This is the easiest of all the tutorials for bias binding making that I've seen! Clear and concise details. Thank you!

@mandymcleod3717 7 лет назад

I know this is an old video, but I just watched it today to answer my questions about single/double fold bias tape. You explained the differences and the steps SO clearly--thank you so much!!

@rosehep3301 5 лет назад

LOVE your tutes, Dana! I check back here to rewatch every time I need to make some tape, just to refresh on the instructions. For new watchers, if you have the same set of tape makers and want to know how wide to cut the strips: #6 takes 1/2" strips, but makes tapes so small and fiddly I'm not sure what they'd be good for yet. #12 takes 1" strips and makes 1/2" single fold, 1/4" double fold. They seem a good size for small seam finishing inside a garment, or delicate necklines and armholes. #18 takes 1.5" strips and makes 3/4" single fold, 3/8" double fold. I like this size for necklines and armholes. #25 takes 2" strips and makes 1" single fold, 1/2" double fold. That size would be good on hems, decorations and crafty things, they're a little too big for necklines and armholes for my taste. Have fun!

I enjoyed your video,but one thing I learned 20 years ago when I started quilting was NEVER cut towards yourself with a rotary cut.One slip and you have cut a main artery

@janinedear-barlow 4 года назад

Please can you help. I don't understand why you have to fold the front side slightly lower than the backside? How does that made site it sews right through??

@danascott1158 4 года назад

@@janinedear-barlow If the lower edge is on top of the fabric you'll be sure to catch the backside since it's up a little higher. Hope this helps!

@cherylkoehler8276 3 года назад

I have pictures of my index finger that took 9 stitches tip to knuckle and then removal of nail....that’s what happens when you cut towards you!

@supermelodia 3 года назад

@@janinedear-barlow I think it's to compensate when you turn the bias to the other side of the edge of the project and will match the edges and not showing the seam.

Hi Professor. EXCELLENT TUTORIAL. I really enjoy watching your videos. You make it enjoyable and y're always smiling. I never thought of fat quarters. I'll invest in a large qty and get the job rolling. It seems so exciting to make my own bias strips. Thanks for your humor and thanks for making me smile. 👍🙋

@ElsaLetelierA 7 лет назад

This is my first time here, and 30 seconds to the video I subscribed! Loving the way you explain, it shows a lot that you love what you do! I'm gonna try to get the bias tape maker and hoping I make my own soon!

@cynthiabrewer266 8 лет назад

This was an awesome video. I'm making pillowcase dresses and this has been a lifesaver. I have the deluxe bias tape maker and that is making double the fun. I've made fat quarters from the left -over fabric to create the strips. I'm still trying to get the hang of sewing the strips correctly. Also, the last piece you cut off makes for nice triangle scraps to use for a quilt project.

@heidiheard6876 4 года назад

Thank you for the clear explanation on where the 14" mark is, on the sewing machine. My sewing machine is very basic, and when I asked a store representative at a local fabric store, where the 1/4" mark was, she talked to me like I was not the "sharpest crayon", so without a seam guide, I was left guessing. Your explanation of the 1/4" seam being just to the right of the presser foot, was incredibly helpful.

@lizstevens1101 4 года назад

Same here! I bought a bias tape maker a few years ago, and basically forgot about it. But found it again to help make masks!

I used up all my bias tape stash making masks (yes, I had a stash that I made) and now I'm busy making more because I feel anxious not having a bunch on hand!

@cylenadee 4 года назад

Great video, thanks!! One a personal note, you’re not only very lovely, but in that loosely fitted dress, you look beautiful!! Very rarely do women realize how beautiful they are when they wear modest loose dresses and isn’t this what we want as women, to be beautiful! Modesty Becomes beautiful when humility is centered in the heart!

@sirenagems4097 8 лет назад

Hi Dana.. this is a great tutorial. I can't thank you enough for showing us how to do this. I've been watching it over and over and today finally did it. Used 3 different fat quarters to practice. The ends were tricky during the first fat quarter, but... I did it by the 3rd one. You are amazing and I can't thank you enough. Many blessings :)
