This is what made the difference for me. Before that, I whip stitched the binding on the backside, and I DIDN'T EVEN KNOW that it wasn't supposed to show. Finally I caught on, and then I tried everything I could think of to make sewing the binding easier, much like the woman on the website. Then I learned the ladder stitch, and everything fell into place. It's easy, it looks good, it goes pretty quick...
Check it out and see what you think!
I've always done this stitch and had no idea it was called the "Ladder Stitch"!!!
