Leave 10" of extra binding fabric at the beginning and the end when you are attaching binding. Leave at least 8 - 10" unstitched between the beginning and the end. Have the bulk of the quilt towards you and the edge away from you on a flat surface. Bring the two pieces of binding together in the center of the gap but leave about 1/4 inch of space between them. Fold the bindings back on themselves and mark the fold with a pin. Take the lefthand piece of binding and lay it out on the flat surface. Right side up. Reposition the pin if necessary so binding lays open and flat. Take the right hand piece of binding and lay it wrong side up matching the pins at the fold line of the binding at an exact 45 degree angle. Stitch on the diagonal and lay it down on quilt to check before trimming off the excess. Used to have the perfect pictures of this from someone's blog but can't find it now. May have to make my own! When making binding I always add the new piece wrong side up and draw a diagonal stitch line from the top left to bottom right. When ombined with this method of putting binding together all the bias stitching lines always all go the same direction. The little space between the two pieces of binding makes it all fit nice and snug. When you are sure things are right cut off the EXCESS from your stitching line. Finger press the seam open and refold the binding in half and stitch it to the quilt. This is probably as clear as mud. But it makes a great finish to your binding.
