That is so funny - I allow extra fabric when I measure my binding because I know I am going to have to cut off a number of connections where I joined the strips inside out or at 90 degrees, and I sit there with the book open to the page showing how to do it.
Now I don't feel so bad! I think there is something about bindings that must thwart even the most experienced quilter.
Cheer up! :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
