Magic Trick! How to get a lot of continuous bias cut fabric strips from a small amount of fabric

Short on fabric? This video will show you how to make over 20 yards of continuous bias cut fabric strips in 15 minutes with only 3/4 yard of fabric and no waste!! If you need a lot of bias cut fabric strips to cover welt or piping cord and you are short on fabric, this trick is like magic! Many times over the years I've needed to make a lot of welt cording or piping for cushions, upholstery projects, pillows, or draperies, and didn't have enough fabric to do it the traditional way. This method saved me every time. It requires very little sewing and cutting, and results in almost zero wasted fabric. I found this method many years ago in a (now out of print) book published in 1979 by Sunset called Slipcovers & Bedspreads. Below is a chart of the approximate number of running yards of 1 5/8" wide continuous bias casing you can get using this method. 1/2 yd of 36" fabric: 10 yds 1/2 yd. of 48" fabric: 13 yds. 1/2 yd. of 54" fabric: 14 yds. 3/4 yd. of 36" fabric: 16 yds. 3/4 yd. of 48" fabric: 20 yds. 3/4 yd. of 54" fabric: 22 yds. 1 yd. of 36" fabric: 22 yds. 1 yd. of 48" fabric: 26 yds. 1 yd. of 54" fabric: 29.5 yds.
