That's what I thought. Thanks for clarifying.

It must be right sides together to end up with the seam on the inside of the binding. Wrong sides together will put the seam on the outside, very visible.

here is a picture and always open up the binding after sewing and check that it fits the quilt BEFORE trimming to 1/4 inch.[ATTACH=CONFIG]570113[/ATTACH]

My go-to, never-fail is Emerald Meadow's YouTube video. He speaks slowly enough so that I can play the video at the same time that I'm following the steps. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7BT1pl_IolE
I passed this video along to someone making their first-ever quilt and they did it correctly the first time, also commenting that one could follow right along with Emerald. |
Problem solved with this video! Thank you so much!

This is also my favorite, most straight forward explanation.

That's a lot of work. I stick the raw end into the other end, fold over and stitch. Never got a comment about bad joins from a judge. And I have been going back to no miter corners for binding. It looks cleaner with sharp corners.

The Emerald Meadows video is my favourite. The man is an Engineer and he figured it out from an engineering standpoint for his wife to teach it in a class, so he made it really straightforward. His video was the first time the lightbulb went off for me when joining the ends.

Thanks everyone. Emerald Meadow seems to be the consensus. I will be putting that one in my arsenal!
