  3. Sew along the area within 1/4 inch from the edge.  Please note that if your pattern already includes seams allowance, you will need to trim the excess from the pattern before continuing to the next step.DSC_1210
  4. Press the bias tape to the inside, leaving about 1/8 inch of the main fabric facing the other side of the project.
