The Sew Easy Fusible Bias Tape Maker (12mm) is an essential tool for quilters and garment makers looking to create precise, uniform bias strips with minimal effort. It is ideal for hobbyists engaging in Celtic or stained glass quilting who require consistent tape widths, though users should note that the tool is specifically sized for 12mm output and works best when paired with compatible fusible webbing.

Yes, the tool works perfectly for creating regular bias tape without any adhesive backing.
For a 12mm finished tape, you should generally cut your fabric strip approximately 24mm wide.
No, it should only be cleaned by hand with a soft, damp cloth.
A standard household steam or dry iron is sufficient for setting the folds.
No, the tool does not come with fusible webbing; it is recommended to purchase 5mm fusible bias tape separately.
Ensure your fabric strip was cut straight and is not wider than the tool's entry guide allows.
Increase the temperature of your iron or slow down your pulling speed to ensure adequate heat transfer.
Check that the fabric strip is being fed into the center of the tool rather than pulled at an angle.
To begin, cut your fabric on the bias (at a 45-degree angle) to your preferred width. Feed the fabric strip into the wide end of the tool, using a pin or tweezers to help pull the fabric through the narrow end if necessary. Once the fabric is fed through, press the tape flat with an iron as it exits. Ensure the tool is kept clean of any adhesive residue; if fusible webbing builds up on the internal tracks, gently wipe the tool with a damp, non-abrasive cloth once cooled. Store the device in a dry place to prevent the metal components from warping.
