Help! Need mitered binding tutorial????
Does anyone have or know of a good mitered binding tutorial or tips? I have a book with instructions but they are not doing it for me. I usually sew to the end turn my quilt and keep going.... Help!

I haven't tried it yet, but it looks so nice and neat and beautiful when she does it!

Make sure the quilt is squared up, and that you stop at the corner in the correct spot. If you seam allowance is 3/8", stop 3/8 from the edge. I usually mark the corner in the quilt. You can do it--if I can, you can. Just try it.
