I was wondering if actually cutting bias binding might be worth the extra step. I always just cut strips from WOF or use leftover jelly roll strips. In 2019, I'm going to focus on making sewbaby blankie buddies to work on my quilting and binding. I made a few a couple years ago when our group was practicing quilting and binding. I make stuffed animals so I got the quilted squares from everyone and made the animal heads. When did square binding go out of style? It was how my grandmother always finished her quilts. Of course she died in the 80's at 94 yrs old |
The only way to master miter binding is to do it until you get the Oh I get it moment. Make a lot of potholders or placemats. That's what I did. I took a weekend and made dozens of potholder with miter binding. I can do miter in my sleep. LOL
