Lovely projects all, Cattitude!
I've really gotten distracted by making bias bindings. I've used up my leftover bias bindings by this point and am now taking yardage and turning it into bias the standard way (take a square, cut along diagonal, make "fangs", draw lines, stitch). And now I'm turning it into double fold. Already mentioned here I think that 2.5" jelly roll strips are too wide and you want to be 1.5-2" wide. I'm using 1 yard (each side) for my masks, think it would be fine to be full width of fabric if you are going straight grain.
Don't know how many of you know this method of using paper.

I'm using something similar to help me with ironing my binding since I want to to have it all raw ends encased. Helps my eyesight issues and from getting my fingers burned! I've tried various combinations of things, there is a lot to be said for that smaller 3-4" width, mine is longer but I do press down the end part when I'm pulling the next segment through, and the end is more of a funnel prompting the fabric into the right turns.
Don't know if any of these show it, but in case you wonder why I wear my wedding ring on my left index finger -- it's because that's where it fits now as opposed to where it fit 100 pounds ago
