I recently made a tea cozy and used a 1/2" bias tape maker. I thought it was too small, but I made it work. Next time I will cut the strips larger. 1 3/4" sounds great! Probably won't buy another bias tape maker. I found a tute on a bias tape maker "cheat"...I'll look for it and post it

You only need to use bias if its a round potholder. I love my bias tape maker !! It is one of my favorite tools, and 99 percent of what is made with the bias tape maker is fabric cut with the grain not bias.
