Bias tape is extremely useful and helpful when you are sewing. It can be used in various projects to close seams and to ensure that all of the edges are looking professional. However, you don't need to rush out to the store every time that you want to use some bias tape. It is actually one of the easiest things to make at home with some spare fabric that you have lying around.
It does take some time to make the bias tape, but it can definitely be worth it if you are looking for something to match the outfit that you are making perfectly.
