@@mandyoliver3398 hmmm... I'm not sure because I don't know what you are doing. Are you using a bias tape maker tool or just ironing? What is going wrong? I need more info please!
@@ArtistTaraReed I purchased the bias maker you used. I cut my fabric in various sizes, 1”, 1.25” 1.5” & 2” and at each piece was bunching up. The one time it did work, it was only 4” and then the fabric wasn’t aligning into the proper half of fabric on the sides. Help!
@@mandyoliver3398 I've had a video about Bias Tape Makers on my list but you inspired me to get it done - hopefully this helps! ruclips.net/video/NfRJNF8qg7o/видео.html
If I wanted to make this and make it adjustable. I know I can purchase the adjustable piece to match the swivel but would I have to add more length to it?
I haven’t made any adjustable but I would say you at least need to account for the length that would be used looping through the adjustable piece. Then make sure it will be a comfortable length for the tallest person who would use it and the distance you want the dog to be able to wander. I’d look up lengths that are offered to purchase for an idea of what to try. Have fun!
I used a universal needle, so nothing special. But it is a good idea to change your needles more that you’d think, especially when working with thicker materials so they are nice and sharp!
I can’t wait to give this a whirl! Great instructions!
Have fun! 🧵
@@ArtistTaraReedI’m having so much trouble creating the bias tape. What am I doing incorrect?

Thank You For sharing This will Be A Perfect Project For Our Young girls in our sewing group. what weight of thread did you use. ty
A perfect project they can show off as they walk their dogs! I used a basic Guttermann thread from Joann Fabric. Have fun!
Hello! What type of sewing machine do you use? Thank you in advance!
@@rmcn9623 I have a Janome M7 Continental and love it!
I’m really new at this. Does sewing the strapping need a special needle, or any different settings?
