I have also cut bias strips using the AQ die system and a half yard of fabric.

Thank you for these links! Not having the AQ die system, I will try the folding used in the first video. Originally Posted by Rhonda K

I can't cut straight to save my life when using scissors, as required by this method. So my bias strips are as uneven and choppy as all get-out along the edges, and I can't even escape it by turning under the edges, as they are meant to be applied on this quilt with the raw edges exposed.
Does anyone have any tips for cutting those bias strips? Or do I need to go back to just plain cutting a piece of fabric on the bias, many times, using a ruler, and then sewing them all together??
Sadly I cant either. I either use my Accuquilt and sew t hem together or my june taylor shape-cut. I tried the cylinder method once very sad results. Even a ruler and rotary cutter produces decent strips. I feel ya.Originally Posted by PiedPiper
