After running fabric through the first time, I fold in half and run it manually through the heat press, by passing the tip. Hope this makes sense. Maybe someone has an easier way to make double fold.

I won the bias maker in a blog giveaway a few months ago. I never knew what I was missing! It is well worth it!!

Consider making binding very easy often can get it done and on in an am before off to work. Not looking for more gadgets no room,

Do you always have to cut your strips on the bias or will it work for straight of grain? I think cutting on bias wastes fabric unless you are binding curves. Please let me know what you think. Thanks in advance.

I have one and use it all the time. I cut which ever way I have enough fabric. Never had a problem.

Why skip it? Do you have one that you have used and had a problem or didn't like it?
I can fold and press my own binding but
I (and many others) don't want to. Same as I don't want to hand piece just because I can.
