I always love to watch videos about binding. I usually learn something new.
I had some quilts judged and got very positive comments on my binding. One of the things mentioned was alternating the miters on the corners. I have shared this hint with many quilting friends who weren’t aware of this. Good job bringing it to everyone’s attention.
