Bies Cotton 18mm - Dark Red color

Dark red: 18 mm double-fold bias tape for binding

A deep dark red, more understated than bright red. Because it is cut on the bias, it follows curves such as necklines and rounded corners very well, and it arrives with the edges already folded. At 18 mm wide, once folded over the edge it makes a fine binding of about 9 mm, ideal for delicate finishes.

What to use dark red 18 mm bias tape for

• Finishing the edges of fabric masks and scrub caps
• Binding booties, bonnets and children's clothing
• Binding necklines, armholes and collars

Colour idea: Looks great with beige, grey or tartans.

Bias tape details

• 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.
