I thought about it for a while...last night I ended up with and empty spool finishing up a UFO from 2010 and thought I could make a binding buddy out of this. All I used was a long piece of red yarn from my Raggedy Ann makings, threaded it through the spool, taped the binding on the spool using masking tape, rolled the binding on it, and hung it around my neck. To my delight and surprise it made adding binding super easy!! It took me half the time it normally does.
