The Best Invention

I think one of the coolest inventions is the bias tape maker. I never had one of these until last year it was on sale and I decided to give it a try...brilliant! So much easier than using a seam gage and burning your fingers with an iron. (I would know)
I used it yesterday to make a casing for a Regency shift. Can you believe it? I'm back to costuming!
You can see more pictures of the shift here: http://pemberleycouture.blogspot.com/2011/12/regency-chemiseshift.html

(I don't know why but bloggers link button isn't working on my computer)
Hope you're all having a wonderful day! I'm off to do some more sewing!

    I think my sister bought one of these, but I've never used it... I'll have to give it a try!

    I love binder makers so much I've bought several in sizes I'm never likely to use including one that produces binding 5 cms wide. I bought it cos it made me laugh ;)
