No, you're right. The cut is 2.5", not the folded finish. So I would cut 2.5" of overlap. Sorry, haven't done binding in a while. I've been hanbd piecing a queen sized GFG since May of last year instead! LOL
Sometimes my brain doesn't completely engage with two children running around but I know I got the basics right!
