Bies Cotton 18mm - Dark Brown

Dark brown 18 mm cotton bias binding, ready to sew

A very dark, almost black brown, understated and elegant. It is a folded bias tape: the edges are folded at the factory, saving ironing time and giving a clean, even binding. At 18 mm wide, once folded over the edge it makes a fine binding of about 9 mm, ideal for delicate finishes.

Typical uses

• Binding fabric bags, wash bags and pouches
• Finishing the edges of aprons and chef hats
• Finishing the edges of fabric masks and scrub caps

Pair it: An alternative to black on earthy and camel fabrics.

Specifications

• Composition: 50% cotton, 50% polyester
• Width: 18 mm (about 9 mm binding once folded)
• Supplied as: 25-metre roll
• Folded bias tape: edges already folded, ready to sew
• Bias cut: follows curves without puckering

Why a blend: the polyester means the tape shrinks less and keeps its colour better wash after wash than a 100% cotton bias, while keeping the natural look and feel of cotton.
