Choose the style -I cut little cards to mark the distance I want left for the type of edge I want.
As above I have marked the cards . . .
#1Roll forward and whip it - with 100%wool YARN
#2 Binding tape only and
#3 Whipping the edge with a cord in it.
Here I mark my Hooked piece . . .in this case a teacozy with a slightly uneven finished hooked edge . . because I am sewing together a front and back of the teacozy . .no I have never done this bewfore but it seemed right to have the 2 sew up well together . . .I'll let you know when I have it done!
I seem to be doing all this finishing information backwards . . .but I have had requests for more basic info so I share it here . .
REMEMBER though. . . . . .
there are many ways to do all this . . . .NO RULES . . . .this is only my way . . . .you can choose any highway your heart desires!
What a great tool you've made to help you with the different binding techniques! Can you tell us the measurements you use for each one?
ReplyDeleteThat is a great idea. I tend it try and "eyeball" it - with less than stellar results!
