join bias binding in the round

The following tip is included in the Tea Party pattern, but I wanted to pull it out and highlight it. I was sewing up a bunch of darling Tea Party Bloomers recently and used this method to join the bias binding in the round for the leg openings on the bloomers. It’s a really slick technique.

Here we go.

1) Open out the ends of the binding.

4) Open the two creased folds. It can be helpful to mark the inside of the creases with a fabric marker.

5) With right sides facing, match the fold lines to each other.
