It’s that time again… time for another wonderful Sew, Mama, Sew Giveaway Day! Welcome! For those who don’t know me, my name is Jennifer and I have an Etsy shop called Slightly Biased full of handmade bias and binding tapes.
You’ll probably be able to guess what I’m giving away.
The second prize is three yards of this springtime Diane Kappa Zinnia Garden in Teal double fold bias tape. So much better than store-bought bias tape, no? If you want to see what else Slightly Biased has to offer, don’t forget to check out the store!
So what do you have to do to win? Just answer this one easy question:
The two winners will be chosen randomly. One entry per person. The giveaway will be open until noon central time on Friday, May 27th. International entries are welcome! Good luck!

I’m about to use bias tape for the first time on an apron I’m making for my sister, then I have a couple of tops to make for my daughter that I’m going to use it on. Is it just me that puts off stitching for a while when there’s a new technique I need to get my head around?!?

I used bias tape for some hair accessories, thank you so much for the opportunity!
amy dame
oh wow! your bias tape is gorgeous!
i actually try to avoid using bias tape at all costs, because i hate how cheap the typical bias tape looks and feels. however, i recently made bias piping for an apron, and then bias binding for a quilt, and now i’m converted! i LOVE how fabric acts when it’s on the bias, and how the print changes.
Cass
Don’t be too shocked but I’ve never used it! I am brand new to sewing and was too scared by the tutorials to make my own bias tape. I’d love to use some of yours. It looks fantastic!
Have a great day!

I’ve never actually used bias tape yet, but in looking at projects I want to do, I’ve noticed that I’m going to need it and I’m too nervous about it to make my own!
larissaesq at gmail dot com
Libbyjones
I used it for binding on small fabric art projects, like to bind the pages of a fabric book. I have also used it to scrunch up and make flowers, and in a crazy quilt.
Willa Mcneill
Frequently use bias binding on my small bags and accessories. Actually, I go thru spells of using it lots and then using other solutions

Dangandblast
I am not inventive… apron/potholder edgings/neckties, and quilt bindings. I’m tempted (and certainly will if I win this, because that’s Cuter Than Your Average Binding) to put it around a burp cloth to fancy it up a bit!

Wamber_the_Panda
I typically use bias tape for projects like garment sewing.. a ton of the patterns call for bias tape to finish up the neck and armholes. I prefer straight grain bias tape for quilting, but I have used it in a pinch when I’m wanting to finish up the project quickly. I have to say though, I absolutely love your product offerings! My beef with the storebought bias tapes is that they are only solid colors and they are not 100% cotton!
MJ Mayer
I love finding things to put bias tape on for my daughter’s clothes. i’ll even add ruffles just so I can bias-finish the edges of the ruffles for a unique look!

Happy day and thx for sharing
AprilInAutumn
I love homemade bias tape! I use it to line bag handles or the edges of skirts… all kinds of things. I rarely want to sit down and devote crafting time to making bias tape though.
jbrgeternity
Colourful bias tape jollys any project it encompasses adding the final touch of colour to frame and complete it. Childrens clothing benefits form that extra zing as does any quilted project, bags pot holders, tableranners pillows, quilts of any size or shape. Pretty invaluable stuff altogether.
Lisa Parnell
Wonderful stuff. I use bias tape on children’s clothing and bags.
michele duffy
yummy! i use bias tape on anything with curves–the last was a quilted jacket for my mom!

My favorite project using bias tape is a Cart Caddy:
http://www.bluecricketdesign.net/2009/08/cart-caddytutorial.html
Last year I made these as Christmas gifts for about half of the women on my gift list. I had soooo much fun coordinating the two fabrics and bias tape. But that was all before I discovered handmade bias tape, so just imagine what I could do with some of your bias tape!

Nancy Sue
My 3 yr old son has adopted my old (circa 1973) felted cowboy hat. Through many washings is now resembles more of a Pappa Bernstein Bear look. The cheesy silver trim is finally deteriorating, so I’m going to try some binding to finish off the edge. I’ve also been doing several potholders to get my brain around several mitering techniques used in blog tutorials.
Katz Gali
used it on a table runner for my m-i-l.
