Sewists who make their own trim reach for a bias tape tool to turn a plain fabric strip into folded tape. This tool has a guide slot shaped to fold cloth as you feed it through, with wing edges at the opening to help you steer the strip into place. You get a simple, hand-held shape made for garment finishing, quilting edges, and other sewing projects that call for folded tape.
The design keeps things plain on purpose. There is a single input slot sized for one strip width, so the tool stays focused on one job. Feed a cut strip in, pull it through, and press the folded tape with an iron as you go.
This is a small hand tool for your sewing table, not a machine part. It ships as a finished piece, made to order in the USA after you order.

Printed plastic is strong for its size, but it is not metal. We have not load tested this design, so we do not publish a weight rating. Keep it out of a hot car and away from open flame.
