Default Anybody have a good link to make continuous bias tape?

I have a book but it's not quite clear and none of the links I found were any better. I figured you all would have the perfect link. :-)

That is perfect. It is the first one that I've seen that gives instructions for using a rectangle. Thanks so much!

I tried once to make this type of binding for a double wedding ring quilt and gave up on the binding completely. I threw the quilt in a corner of my studio and it was rescued by my bestie and she finished the quilt for me.

Thank you for this information - I have finally printed a copy to use in the future.

Shelley Rodgers' (Pirate) instructions are the best. I almost always use a striped bias binding on my quilts and using Shelleys' instructions they always come out perfect.

I agree with everybody above. I tried so many times to find a method that would work for me. This one is straightforward, simple and very clear and it works every time! I love striped bias bindings too and can cut enough bias binding for a King sized quilt in about an hour.
