This tape is made from Stamoid™ Light 8.82oz fabric. The tape's lengthwise edges have been turned under for a finished look (i.e. hemmed edges).

Facing is used to trim and reinforce edges. It can be sewn flat along the edge to be covered or it can be manually folded over the edge and sewn down. It is often used to face both sides of a window panel or to reinforce a sleeve for zippers. The 1" fold is wide enough to provide an appropriate additional layer for fastener installation.
