What do you use bias binding for




















Steam really helps to set the fabric into place and it will make the job a whole lot easier if you press properly before you stitch. My personal preference of width of bias binding to use for dressmaking projects is 18mm. Most of the time when you attach binding, you will be going all the way around a neckline or armhole and will therefore have to deal with joining it up. The way you do this is the same so I've highlighted at what point you need to do it, and set out the instructions right at the bottom of the post to prevent lots of repetition.

If you decide to have the binding exposed then the next thing to decide is whether you want to see the full width of the binding or half the width. If you decide to have the binding folded to the inside of the garment and out of sight, the next thing to decide if how far away from the edge of the garment you want to see the top stitching line.

Simply press the binding over again to the inside and then top stitch it in place with the right side outside of the garment facing you. Again, this will ensure the stitching line looks neat even if there are variations in how you have pressed it. This follows the same principle as described in the exposed full width example but the first stage is changed to the following.. Open out one of the folds of the binding and line it up with the raw edge of your garment at the neckline, right side of the binding facing right side of the main fabric.

This stage applies to whatever method you are using to attach the binding and should be done after you've sewn that first line of stitching attaching the binding to the garment. I hope you've found that useful and can give binding a try now with a bit more confidence! Let me know how you get on and if you have any questions :.
