LOL...I learned to make potholder this year and finally....finally...finally figured out how to do the binding on the potholders. I cut the corners off so that they are slightly rounded..use bias binding and sew around the corner very slowly. I don't actually join the binding, but use the tail to make a hanging loop and tuck the end under the edge of the binding to clean it up. It only took me about 15 potholders to figure this out....:roll:
