I would like to thank those who helped me online last night. I would recommend NOT getting "The Binding Tool" which I purchased from Missouri Quilt Company, hoping it would help. What a mess. My binding had just a little extra fabric so that when I tried to finish it off at the end there were some pleats of fabric. Then, because the ends had already been cut I just could not get them to come together correctly. When I finally followed the excellent directions at heatherbailydesign.com, my edges had been cut so that now, although the binding set nicely, it was no longer even and I could not sew it on without a hole in the front. I am now in the process of piecing in a new section of binding so I can follow those same directions and get the binding to work! I did find other helpful directions at quiltinggallery.com. Someone named Sharon Schamber gave good directions there and I followed them (except for gluing) and got what should be nice corners. Too bad I didn't follow her to the end. All the folding at the end and gluing led me to remember the instant and easy success promised on the Missouri Quilting site. Lesson learned!
