Today I am making binding for a quilt. This nifty little tool is a great help.
Important: On your strip (and yes, it is still folded and I am working on the open ends), place your ruler so that the top of the ruler is even with your fabric. You then rotary cut from the bottom of the strip to the top (about where 4 is). Then cut the small vertical piece.
These strips were both cut the same, just turned around .
Now you nestle those two strips. Sew 1/4 inch from corner to corner (where you see the two pins) and...and...wait for it...
VOILA..you have a perfectly pieced biased binding strip. Pretty cool, huh? Told you it was a cool tool!
