My favorite binding for when I have a wide border. I cut 6 inch strips, fold in half, sew on and turn and then have a wide binding on the front. It makes an instant frame around the quilt. Mitering wider binding is a breeze. Each corner is perfect. My last quilt I made a rag binding. Sewed the folded edge to quilt, turned the raw edges to the front and machine stitched close to the edge of the quilt. The raw edges ragged in the wash. I trimmed and snipped as needed. I had raw edge machine applique on the quilt so it looked nice to have a binding raw edged. I'm always trying out new ways to do binding.
