Way cool. Thank you for showing us the video. I love Missouri Star for their videos and daily deal. They have quick shipping and good prices.

I absolutely love that website. And I order from them too- they send a hand-written thank you on the invoice- wow!!

Just watched it and it's a good one- as always! I love the way Jenny does tutes.

Thanks for the info!

Isn't this the same way you make bias binding?That's the way I have made my bias bindings in the past.

This is not a new technique. I have been making bias binding like this since I learned to quilt in 1982. Some techniques don't get passed on to new quilters and then when they find them they think they are new. I think it was in Georgia Bonesteel's Lap Quilting book that I learned it.

I have that little gizmo and love it. It was some of the best money I've ever spent on quilting notions.

I think the operative word is "continuous" bias binding. Lots of people cut strips on the bias and sew the individual strips together. That's why I love the "continuous" binding method and have used it always because I'm too lazy to sew all those strips together! I have a chart somewhere that tells you how big to make the block to yield the most yardage of bias binding--now I have to start hunting... :x
