THE BINDER

 

The binder is used to apply commercial

 

binding as well as self-fabric bias to an

 

unfinished edge.

 

This colorful trim is attractive when

 

applied to children's wear, aprons and

 

fabric furnishings. It is a practical finish

 

for seam edges that ravel and for

 

making bound seams.

 

Inserting the Binding

 

Pre-folded commercial bias binding is

 

inserted from the right into the outside

 

slot of the binder scroll.

 

Cut the binding diagonally to form

 

a long point.

 

Insert the pointed end into the slot

The Binder

and pull through the scroll until

 

the evenly folded edges are

 

under the needle. Self-fabric bias

 

binding should be cut 15/16" wide

 

on the true bias.

 

Insert the unfolded binding

 

directly into the two folds at the

 

end of the scroll and draw it back

 

under the needle. As the binding

 

passes through the scroll the raw

 

edges are turned in.
