This is an interesting statement as I am currently where you once were. I was taught to use bias binding and all my quilts have been with bias binding, even things like baby items that have binding on them. To me it's like that tape that can be purchased but what I make matches the item. I'm intrigued by your comment "it was easier" and might have to try straight grain sometime. It would certainly be easier to make strips than that huge square that bias binding making starts with.
