It worked beautifully - you feed the binding material into the slot and it folds the binding around the fabric and sews it on all at once. It took me a couple of weeks to stop being impressed enough to realize that there was no way to sew around corners.
I purchased the Bernina binder attachment not long ago to bind my quilts. I was wondering how to do the corners
with it. I just slightly rounded the corners on the quilt I just finished and it worked beautifully. It was fine on that quilt, but some quilts need and look better with mitred corners.
