Have you seen is tute: http://www.addicted2decorating.com/sewing-basics-how-to-make-continuous-bias-for-welt-cord.html<br /><br />Combined together bias binding becomes a total breeze.

I was seriously thinking about seaming the strips together afterwards instead of before.Robin in Short Pumphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05726872348079992947noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1751957416729779882.post-58126433826942206932010-11-16T10:48:40.730-05:002010-11-16T10:48:40.730-05:00Thank you!
