What is bias cutting?

Bias cutting is a technique used in textile manufacturing in which the fabric is cut on a diagonal angle relative to the weave of the fabric. This results in a fabric strip with a stretchy, flexible quality that can conform to the contours of the body or other surfaces.

VERSATILE FINISHING FOR UNIQUE SHAPE

When we cut your fabric on the bias, it is typically done at a 45-degree angle to the warp and weft of the fabric. This angle creates a stretchy, bias edge that can be used to create curved or rounded edges, such as necklines or armholes in clothing, or to create piping or other decorative trims in home textiles.

One of the key benefits of bias cutting with William Clark & Sons is that it allows fabric to drape and move more fluidly, resulting in a more comfortable and flattering fit. It can also be used to create decorative effects, such as chevron or diagonal stripes.
