THE BINDER
The binder is used to apply commercial
binding as well as self-fabric bias to an
unfinished edge.
This colorful trim is attractive when
applied to children’s wear, aprons and
household textiles. It is a practical finish
for seam edges that ravel and for making
bound seams.
Pre-folded
commercial
bias
tape
is
inserted from the right into slot of the
binder scroll.
•
Cut the binding diagonally to form a
long point.
•
Insert pointed end
into slot and pull
through scroll.
Self-fabric binding
should be cut
wide on the true
bias.
Inserting the Binding
•
Insert
unfolded
binding
directly into opening at end
of scroll and
pull through.
As binding passes through scroll raw
edges are turned in.
