I'm not sure what 'blanket' binding is...but, I use pieces from my quilt to make my own binding. I cut 2 1/2" strips and sew them together on an angle until I have more then enough to go all the way around the edge of the quilt. I fold this strip in half, and press..then.. I trim the outside edge of the quilt leaving about 1/4" of the batting sticking out on the very edge. Then I sew down the binding, all the way around,(Sewing the strip to the edge of the fabric) then flip it over to the back and will pin and hand whip it down all the way around or sew it in place. Make sense at all? I hope this helps:)LOL Very simple and quick and the binding matches my quilt:)Skeat
