Tutorial: How to Make Bias Tape

I just noticed a post on the colettepatterns.com/blog for a tutorial on bias tape: http://www.colettepatterns.com/blog/tutorials-tips-tricks/tutorial-how-to-make-bias-tape I need to get one of those bias tape tools. Bound seams are some of my favorites, so I'll probably be using this tutorial very soon. :)

Trims a la Polly Danger

The other night I convoed back and forth with the purveyor of cuteness on the subject of a trade. These lovelies are the goodies that she is trading for goods from my shop. I'm so excited to get my mitts on these, they'll make such cool projects.

These goods are from: www.pollydanger.etsy.com She has those fabulous buttons too.

I spotted this shop on the etsy front page, and started 'geeking' out in a very seamstress-y way.
Ack. I bought a few buttons.
The hand-made revoltingly c-u-t-e bias tape was so appealing, but I went with the buttons...
For now...
I'm a sucker for buttons. And cute packaging.

And I also fall pretty easily for little polka dots.

Good enough to eat. :)

Here are some of these adorable bias tapes. They would look great on a sundress, apron, or a tote/bag/purse.

This kit is so cute. I've been using that word to excess, however I simply cannot help that. :D

If I didn't have a veritable arsenal of sewing supplies, I think that I'd have to have one. :):):)

I love this one!

Ditto!

I like the use of scallops and stripes that I see throughout the goods.

What is it about this bag that screams--Frenchy, sea-side and summer?

I'll use the word again----cute!!!
