As cute as this was, this actually is not how to make bias tape, it is how to sew a seam binding. To make bias tape you have to cut and fold strips.

I don't see why you'd need to sew twice to do this, I can do the exact same thing in one stitch, it's how I've been doing it since I started. Just wrap the tape around and sew the top stitching. The video didn't explain any benefits for this method.

Cute video though.

cute, but next time perhaps amy can explain how to neatly apply bias tape around a curve.
