The Mad Seamtress: My First Bias Strip Neck Edging

I have bought and used double fold bias tape many times (great stuff, great stuff, ready-made bias tape).  Now for the first time I have cut my own bias strip and used it to safely enclose the neck edge on a collar-less tunic:
The fabric is light, loosely woven linen so I didn't have to be very precise about being on the bias.  But I'm still very pleased with how tidy this is.  Although it won't even be seen when I'm done, as I'm going sew a wide embroidered ribbon around all the edges.
