Does it matter if you cut the bias binding
WOF...width of fabric or LOF...length of fabric |
Bias is cut on the bias. 45 degree angle.

My binding is cut WOF. Been doing it that way for years. Your other thread has good ideas on Bias or not. I read it this morning.

WOF...width of fabric or LOF...length of fabric HOWEVER-------I cut on the grain binding across the width generally, then sew together with a bias seam. |

http://kirabell.blogspot.com/2009/01...t-quarter.html One thing I will say is that she is having to scissor-cut her tube from the right end of the tube - and she's right handed, so that's not very natural. If she had made the first diagonal cut across the FQ in the opposite direction, she would then be cutting the tube from the left end - for a right-hander, this is a much easier way to cut - you can hold the edge of the tube with your left hand and cut with your right. :) If you're a right hander, it's probably not as natural or comfortable to hold the tube with your right hand and cut with your left. |
