I have googled, searched here, searched UTube and tried to search Quilterstv with no luck.
It's been a long time since I made binding and even longer since I sewed it on.
How do I calculate how many strips I need? 2" strips give me 1 in binding...what about 3" strips, would that work?
I bet I could make 3 in strips of all the different fabrics in my quilt, sew them together, and have a great multi-color binding....but then what?
Do I sew it to the front and hand stitch to the back or vice versa? Do I use a 1/4" seam or not? How do I make those corners nice? Is there a tutorial or nifty trick out there somewhere?
HELP!!!

EDITED TO ADD: Saw a tute on binding at quilters cache, but I think I just ended up with more questions. How com 3" strips only give you 5/8" binding? What if I want bigger binding than that? Is double fold really necessary?
