Instructions for Use:
To Make the Bias Tape:
- Guide heat-sensitive tape (paper-backed fusible web tape) into the straight slot and towards the narrow end of the tool, adhesive side-down.
- Pin-feed (or use an awl to push) pre-cut fabric into the U-shaped groove, pulling it through the small end.
- Pulling the bias strip and fusble together, secure in place by pinning to your ironing board.
- Gently pull the Bias Tape Maker away from the pinned end, following it with your iron to press the fabric folds and fuse the web simultaneously.
To make traditional bias tape, follow the steps above, omitting the fusible web.
Notes:
- for 1⁄4″ & 3⁄8″ bias, use 5mm fusible web
- for 1⁄2″, 3⁄4″ & 1″ bias, use 10mm fusible web.
