Default Velvet binding

I just want to report back in case anyone is curious about the outcome of putting a velvet binding on my quilt. I have no regrets about using velvet but I did learn some things and will do some things differently if I use velvet again for a quilt binding. I did a French binding and I think a single layer binding would be better. The double layer is too thick and made the getting the mitered corners perfectly square a challenge. I would also like it better if it were a 2 inch instead of 1 inch which I could have done had I not done the French binding. The velvet was easy enough to sew. I did pin it well and used a walking foot. Anyway, thanks for the tips and advice. I would submit a picture but don’t see how to do that.
