Description
This is a tool for making Bias tape. This also works fine with non-bias cut fabric strips.
The tool will take a 1.50" wide strip of fabric and fold the sides to make hems and straps on fabric masks. It does not fold the tape in the center, but leaves a gap to allow easier folding by hand.
You can use the tool with or without an iron.
To use without an iron, pull the fabric back along the "bottom" of the tool as shown in the second picture.
TIP FOR STARTING: (see fourth picture) Cut the corners on the fabric to make it easier to start. about 1/2 inch at a 45 degree angle is perfect. Leave a flat on the end, otherwise it will be hard to push through. Don't make the sides too gradually pointed, they will not fold properly.
