Does anyone know how to do this? I can't see how it could be done without one color creeping over onto the wrong side.
If you want your total binding to be 2.5", cut one binding piece 3/4", the other 2 1/4, and sew your 1/4" seam. Fold in half and iron. Put the small side down on the proper side, sew down and it should fold over so that the seam attaching the different materials is on the edge.
