    This would make it so much easier....I'll add that the next time i make it. Im still shocked at how easy it was. I have always avoided bias tape but this was so fun I think I could make a stash if it.

    Thank you for taking your time to post this. I'm going to give it a try; I think I would end up save a lot of fabric this way.

    Wow, this is a great tip!! Thanks so much for sharing it. It really does look so easy. Once I learn to make the hexagon shape, I can see this coming in very handy for lovely bindings!!!
