To me this video was an eye opener. httP:www.missouri quilt co.com. Now go to the video section at the top of the page. How to make 200yds of binding from only 1/2 yd of 34" material. Whoopee!!!!!!!!! Only have a small stash and this lady is very good as a teacher. Enjoy! :lol: :lol: :lol:

If you liked that one ... check out all the other videos. They're grrrrrrrrrrrrreat, as Tony the Tiger would say! :lol:

thank you for the info. will go look soon. gotta love this

Amazing how this binding went from 200 INCHES to 200 YDS!

she did a typo from her intro to the story. quite sure you can't get 200 YARDS from 1/2 yard of 34 inches of fabric. The math doesn't add up for me anyway.

I am sure that a first time poster should be cut some slack, I hit the wrong keys. SORRY!!!!!!!! BUT IT IS STILL A GOOD FIND.

I make my binding this way except I use a square instead of a rectangle. I love it!

Just to add, if you take the triangle that you cut off the one end and sew it back on the other end, so you have a "crooked" rectangle, there is NO waste. It really is cool!
