Binding tip
 
I cut an empty toilet paper tube in half and wound my binding on it and set it on the upright spindle on my machine, worked perfectly

I do that, too, only after I wrap it, I put the roll in a small box on the floor beside the machine and feed it up that way. The box seems to corral it for me and it is in position. Thanks for sharing.

An empty tissue box works great!

Good tip. I lift my acrylic table and up and putt my binding on the leg. That works good too.

I roll my binding on an empty paper towel roll and then put it on a paper towel holder and it rolls off nicely as I sew. I place the holder on the floor to my right and it winds right off.

So clever! I could have used that tip today-just finished binding my latest.

This is what I do also, except I use a tube that is much thicker than a TP roll. I cut the tubes the same size as a TP roll. I will try your tip. Thanks!
