Okay to cut binding from length of fabric?
#1
I have plenty of fabric leftover from my borders, but the borders were cut the length of the fabric. There's only about 15 inches left in the width. Is it okay to cut my binding from the length of the fabric, or is that not something I'd want to do?

I use this bias ruler. Makes cutting bias hassle free and no thinking.

I usually cut mine across (the 42-45" length) the fabric and piece, but there is no reason why the long cut wouldn't work. You will have fewer seams and assuming you plan to do continuous binding, just make sure your seams won't land on a corner.
