Let's Talk Grainline

In this video I show you grainlines: length, cross, and bias.
When patterns say "place on grain", the lengthwise grain is what they mean.
Bias on fabric is the diagonal between length and cross, and it makes for a better drape and slight stretch.
All of us people have bias too. It just means that we lean or slant towards one side or another. (In case you were wondering.)
Many thanks for watching!
