Need link to binding tip here, two color
I think someone posted a two color binding in here but can't find it. I believe it was sewn onto the back and folded over the front, then stitched down. I am almost finished with a lap quilt and want to do that.
anyone know this post??

I see no one (including myself) has provided a link for you but I do remember this topic. What I would do...determine what width biding you wanted to use. Sew opposing fabrics together with strips opposing to reduce wavering/wiggling of your fabrics. Press seams open; press binding wrong sides together to make sure you have your binding as close to perfectly aligned as possible. Then stitch to top side of quilt and wrap to back. I hand sew my back-side bindings so that is what is what I would recommend to be able to control exactly where the front/back of the binding falls. But that is me.
I did do a quick search of 'two color bindings' and got nothing quickly accessible on the site regarding this subject. Perhaps you could do a more in depth search and get different answers??? Good luck. It sounds like a really awesome concept for some quilts and one I may try myself at some point.

Here is a link to a thread where I posted some links (that was confusing, lol)for two sided binding. Look for my post and there are a few to choose from...if that is what you are looking for.
