all of it - cutting it on the bias - though I know I can follow a tutorial. I don't like binding at all - don't like joining the ends neatly - I watch the tute step by step - sewing each step then going back to tute. And I've made 84 quilts - about 30 of them with binding! Most of the time I pull the back over to the front, use an decorative stitch and call it good!
