Cotton Bias Binding Cobalt 20mm

Cotton Bias Binding Cobalt 20mm

This cobalt blue bias binding stands out right away thanks to its deep, saturated colour that looks a touch richer than a standard navy blue shade. In the photos you can clearly see the fine cotton weave and the neat double fold that gives the ribbon its characteristic three-dimensional shape. It comes wound on a handy spool, so you can measure out exactly what you need without wrestling with tangles. The soft satin-like sheen in the weave means this bias binding looks decorative on visible edges too.

What is cotton bias binding

Bias binding is a ribbon that is cut and sewn on the bias, at a 45-degree angle to the grain. This allows it to bend smoothly around curved shapes like necklines, armholes and curved hems without puckering or pulling. This binding is made from cotton, a natural fibre that feels soft, presses well and shapes easily around a fabric edge. The double fold in the middle makes it simple to wrap around a fabric edge and stitch in place - you just fold the binding over the edge and sew it down. Cotton bias binding is also washable and keeps its shape even after regular use.
