No sewing yesterday as I spent all night shampooing the carpets in the whole house and they took all day to dry so I went to Savers. Got what I needed, files for the cabinet for $2 and today I filled them.
Also bought these satin rolls of ribbon, I will be using them for dresses and the edges of blankets/ comforters.
I had an Idea and went to see if it would work, and it does! Using the bias binding makers that do not come with the machine, I just used duct tape to hold it on I ran the ribbon through the machine straight from the roll.
I ran it through twice and was happy with the result.
Then I ran some other that I had folded in half without the bias maker, again I ran it through twice.
Ready for use. The first one is the ribbon in half and the other two are the ones using the bias maker.
