There was a tutorial on making binding with 1/2 yd. and it made 200 ft. or yds. I don't remember which. I looked up Missiourui tuts but didn't find it there. Does anyone remember where it was?
I'm ready to do the binding on my quilt and I guess I didn't keep it, any help would be greatly appreciated. |
There is a link here. 200" of binding

Do you need bias binding for curves??? Straight of grain binding is alot easier for ordinary quilts.
|
I like bia if the print on my binding is different. I use straight of grain when it doesn't matter but if I want (for example) stripes to be diagonal then bias is the way to go.

now i get it

Yes, you need bias for curves....it has to be flexible to go around them. Straight grain binding isn't flexible. I also like to cut plaids and stripes on the bias for bindings because of the look I get.

Well when I looked at the video I realized you have to have 90 degree ruler to do this method. What a bummer I don't have one I don't think I have ever seen one either. Have any of you or do you know where to buy one for future use?
Thanks again for your assistance. |
It is 200 inches of binding from the 1/2 yard,not 200 yards. It is a good tutorial though.
