Product Information
Full details
The Creativ White Bias Binding Tape is an essential tool for sewing enthusiasts, quilters, and crafters looking to achieve a professional edge finish on their projects. Designed for versatility, this 20 mm wide tape offers superior flexibility thanks to its bias-cut construction, allowing it to navigate tight curves and irregular shapes with ease. While it provides a clean, consistent look for garment edging and home decor, users should note that the 25-meter length is a fixed width, which may require manual folding or layering for specific decorative requirements.

Each roll contains 25 meters of tape.

Can I use this on heavy fabrics?

Troubleshooting
Tape is puckering around curves
Ensure you are not stretching the tape as you pin; allow it to rest naturally against the curve of the fabric.
Stitching slipping off the edge
Use a seam guide on your sewing machine to maintain a consistent distance from the edge while stitching.
Tape edges look uneven
Use a dedicated binding foot or press the tape with a steam iron before sewing to create sharp, uniform folds.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To begin using the tape, pin it along the raw edge of your fabric, ensuring the bias-cut side is facing the curve. Use a standard sewing machine stitch or hand-sew depending on your project requirements. Since the tape is flexible, avoid over-stretching it during the initial pinning phase, as this can cause the fabric to distort once the tension is released.
Compatibility with various fabric types is high, though it is recommended to test the tape on a scrap piece of your project fabric to ensure the tension settings of your machine match the thickness of the tape. For care, this tape can typically be laundered according to the instructions of the base fabric it is attached to. If ironing, use a heat setting appropriate for the material composition of the tape to avoid shrinkage or scorching.
