Bias Tape Definition

A bias tape, also known as bias binding, is a strip of fabric (usually narrow) that is cut on a bias. The tape is used to bind, repair, or finish the edges of fabrics or seams. Bias tape has fibers that run at 45 degrees to the length of the strip. This allows the fabric to stretch further and be used more easily for its purpose.

Example Calculation

Let's assume the following values:

Using the formula to calculate the Square Inches of Bias Tape (SQI):

\[ SQI = 10 \cdot 2 = 20 \]

The Square Inches of Bias Tape (SQI) is 20 square inches.
