I make my own double fold binding. I sometimes use straight cut, but mostly cut my strips on the bias. My strips are cut 2 and 1/4 inches wide. If I want my binding a wee bit wider I cut my strips 2 and 1/2 inches wide. After sewing strips together, I fold in half to make my double fold binding. One hint. If you are doing a project and you know what fabric you will use to bind, cut it and keep with your project. It is a disaster if you forget and use that fabric for something else. It is a fact you will never be able to replace that fabric. Nice chatting wilt ya'll.
