You could sew the edges of the pie crust strips, but that takes away from it looking like real pie! If it does end up loosening for you when you wash it, using a washable glue (like one of the Alene fabric glues) should tack it down again.Deborah Schlegelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09587353720429282403noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2573603501517438763.post-25399334166776921412012-10-23T04:44:17.592-07:002012-10-23T04:44:17.592-07:00I noticed that you don't have any seams in the...I noticed that you don't have any seams in the "pie" itself.

And welcome to sewing!
The bias tape ...No problem! And welcome to sewing!<br /><br />The bias tape that goes around the outside of the "pie" is double fold bias tape (same as for the lattice except that I didn't press it in half)- if it were to be opened up all the way, it would be 2 inches wide. With the two sides pressed in 1/2 inch each, it's 1 inch wide. You'll need about a yard for the outside of each potholder.<br /><br />The lattice pieces are 9 inches long and with the two edges pressed in are 1 inch wide. The rectangles of Steam-a-Seam are 9 inches by 3/4 of an inch - the 3/4 inch is so that bias tape overlaps a bit so the Steam-a-Seam doesn't show underneath the edges of the lattice.<br /><br />Hope that helps!Deborah Schlegelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09587353720429282403noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2573603501517438763.post-46192376091882020652012-08-30T08:59:06.799-07:002012-08-30T08:59:06.799-07:00I'm a beginner sewer, so please forgive me if ...I'm a beginner sewer, so please forgive me if this question seems silly, but I was wondering what are the cut dimensions of the homemade bias tape that goes around the outside of the pie (the pie crust part)? Is it the same as the lattice top part? If so then should it be 9 inches long by 3 inches wide, since the piece should be 3/4" wide after ironing into bias tape?
