1 1/8" Sasher:
The 1 1/8″ Sasher™ Tool is PQW’s version of a bias maker. It allows you to quickly and easily fold bias or straight grain fabric strips in half (raw edges together) or perform a perfect bias fold using just the Sasher Tool and an iron.
Use the 1 1/8″ Sasher to make:
- Stems and vines for applique,
- Sashing strips for Quilt As You Go quilt making,
- Bias tape for Celtic or stained glass applique
- Bag handles
- Also the perfect size for folding bindings
You will notice that the sides of the Sasher have a curved shape. This is so the curved edge of an iron can neatly fit against the Sasher as you push it along; Which means no more burnt fingers! Pauline recommends using the Mini Iron as it fits perfectly in the curve of the Sasher.
Please note – the size on the Sasher is the finished size of the folded strip. If you require a 1 1/8″ finished size, cut the fabric 2 1/4″ wide and then put through the 1 1/8″ Sasher.
You’ll have perfectly folded strip every time!
