Machine stitching Binding
#1
Is there a trick to putting on binding by machine? I have a special foot for my machine. When you bring the binding to the front, all you're supposed to do is follow along your stitching line and it stitches close to the edge of the binding (on the front.) But, on the back, it doesn't stay consistent. The stitches will be slightly on the binding for a while then they will be on the quilt. What am I doing wrong? Thanks!

I try to use the thread closest to the backing fabric in the bobbin. You have to look real close to see if it did hit your mark. If they are looking that close to the back, then they are nosy. Its going on a bed anyway so why would it be a worry if it doesn't match perfect. There are no quilt police on the board!

I'll tell you my secret...
I don't make my quilts to be reversible, nor are they for judging or sale...so I don't care what the binding looks like on the back, so long as it's attached and pretty on the front. *shhhhhh*
