Some binding questions -- help please
I just got a quilt back from the LAQ and am getting ready to bind it, but I have questions:
1. Do I cut the binding from the LOF or WOF? The edges are straight, not scalloped, so I am not going to cut on the bias.
2. What width works best for you? For the few quilts I have made in the past I used 2-1/2 inch binding strips (can't remember how I cut them, hence question #1) and it seemed to be OK, but I am not sure it was the best choice.
I would be grateful for any advice.
