After reading craftybear's google, I am still confused about French fold. Is it when the binding is folded in half stitched on one side to the quilt, then folded over and (hand stitched) to the back of the quilt? It's never been called that before. Hmmm. Learn something every day.
Yes, French fold binding is when it's folded in half lengthwise and stitched to one side. French fold binding can be either bias or straight grain. It's always been called that.
