Cotton Bias Binding 12mm Purple

Cotton Bias Binding 12mm Purple

This purple bias binding stands out immediately with its deep, rich colour that borders on royal blue but remains distinctly purple. In the photos you can see the fine, even weave of the cotton and the neat fold lines positioned exactly in the centre, ready for you to slip your fabric edge through. The binding has a subtle sheen that's typical of firmly woven cotton and looks both classic and contemporary. On the 12mm roll you'll notice straight away how taut and evenly the binding is finished, with no fraying or uneven edges.

What is cotton bias binding

Bias binding is a tape cut and folded along the bias of the fabric, which gives it slightly more stretch than a straight fabric strip. This means it follows both straight edges and curved shapes like necklines and armholes smoothly and without fuss. This purple version is made from cotton, a natural fibre that feels good to work with, presses well and sews easily. It comes pre-folded with a centre fold, so you can slip it straight around your fabric edge and stitch it down without having to fold it yourself. Thanks to its firm yet supple structure, the finish stays neat even after repeated washing.
