    Bias tape for trees only

    Because I am using a dark background I plan to make lighter coloured trees. I know that the 14 yards of bias tape required for the pattern also includes the corner buildings. Has anyone calculated approximately how much just the trees would take?

    I have that information at home, I am currently teaching away from home. I will let you know next week. My guess it it’s about 8-9 yards.

        Elaine K, I checked my notes and it’s about 9 yards of 1/4” bias tape for the trees.
