Cut bias binding or bias cut strips to the desired width, mark if wanted
and press or pin. Lay the binding round the fabric edge and sew. Guide
the edge of the binding on the right of the fabric along the left side sec-
tion of the foot.
The edge of the binding on the wrong side (raw edge) is neatened by
the looper thread. Trim surplus binding close to stitches.

lar items.
