Each one took roughly 25 yards of bias tape. Thought I had enough black fabric but didn't and had to get more. Then I hoped that black dye matched what I'd already done because, of course, I ran out of the bias tape I already had before I'd finished the first wall hanging. I had _greatly_ underestimated how much I needed and was relieved when the dye on the new fabric matched.

So, it only felt like I was doing a million miles of bias tape when in reality it was closer to 50-ish or so yards. Or 150-ish feet. Or 0.028 of a mile (I asked Alexa).

Egads.

If it was that much bias tape, just how much thread did I use zig-zagging it all down...???

I hadn't thought of it before. Knowing this made me realize just how much I did on these and it has made me really tired. lol
