Jeans Skirt Rescue

Bias binding to the rescue.  This waaay too long jeans skirt was on its way to the charity bag, but was saved today by the "No Lumpy Bumpy Binding Technique" outlined in the previous blog and downloadable from http://www.eazypeazyquilts.com/

I cut off the excess fabric and prepared some bias binding from great fabric found in the stash.  The bias strips were cut 2 1/4" wide but wider would also work.  They were then stitched together and folded in half lengthwise (wrong sides together) and pressed.

The folded binding was stitched to the right side of the skirt matching all raw edges and with a 1/4" seam.  Then a quick press to the wrong side and a quick hem and it was done.  It's cute...won't show, but I know it's there.  So Eazy Peazy!
