BunkHouseQuilts Posted April 28, 2012 Report Share Posted April 28, 2012 Originally posted by KathG Ann, thank you, your tutorial on the way you do your binding is very good. I have used the method where you start by sewing to the back, but have always done it so the binding folds just back over the stitched line. I will definately try your method. It looked very neat .. Thanks! Glad to help.:cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lynne in Iowa Posted April 28, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 28, 2012 Thanks Ann. I have a binding pile accumulating so I suppose I had better get to work and try this out. One question, do you sew off at a right angle a 1/4 inch from the corner? Most directions I've seen use a 45 degree angle, I think that could be part of the problem not getting that angle just right.

GrandmaLKB Posted April 28, 2012 Report Share Posted April 28, 2012 I sew most all my utility quilt bindings just like Ann's method. I use the conventional method if the quilt is going to be judged . I prefer to do it all by machine. For my large quilts, I sew the binding on the front with the longarm and then whip it down on the back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
