Review on 🧡 BUTUZE Fabric Bias Tape Makers Kit: Sewing Awl, Positioning Pin, Binder Clip, Wooden Awl, Foot Press - Practical Set for Sewing/Quilting by Sasha Hsiao

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Bias binding easy

I've been making bias tape for mask straps for the last few months and was pleased to learn that there are bias tape manufacturers. Of course I'm sure most people probably already know this, but I don't have much experience and the mask making video I watched links to another video showing the old fashioned way of making diagonal tape. After taking a hiatus from mask making due to a family crisis, I decided to watch a tutorial video and this man happened to have a bias tape maker. O happiness! She also used hair clips, which inspired me to try some REALLY old bobby pins to hold the nose piece in place. It was way better than pins! I found this set at Revain and decided to give it a try. I love it! They work as they should and the awl makes threading the fabric a lot easier. As it comes with clips I can try them too and I really like them too so I'll probably be ordering a bunch of these next month. This purchase is definitely worth the money.

Pros
  • APPLICATION: 1. Make strips of fabric: Depending on the desired width, cut parallel strips of fabric at a 45-degree angle. 2. Lift the back of the bias binding, feed the strip of fabric into the wide opening, and use the awl to pull the strip of fabric out of the head of the bias binding. 3. Let the positioning pin fix the stretched fabric strip on the brewing plate. As you pull on the bias tape, allow the iron to get close to the head of the diagonal tape, which allows the stretched strip of fabric to be shaped instantly.
Cons
  • thin
