Have another question :D
 

I hate to admit this, but I have never put binding on a quilt. I am working on one now that is getting close to being done, and would really like to know how to attach binding. I'm looking for the "easiest" method, since this will be my first time.

Thanks in advance
♥ you all !!

Go to you tube...many tutes there, pick the method you like.

Thanks Geri, that's actually what I'm doing now :D

I just love this Sharon Schamber video on binding:

The fastest way is to machine stitch the entire thing. I'm not sure I would say that's the easiest because I really don't think that hand stitching is difficult even for most new beginners, but here's a link to an entirely machine stitched binding tutorial. It's from Sewing with Nancy:

Note: you don't need one of those fancy adjustable side fence thingies. If you have one, great. If you have a seam guide, you can use that. Typically it's not super hard to stay in the ditch, but you can always stack up 5-6 post-it notes to create a makeshift seam guide so you know how to line up the edge of your quilt consistently every time.

Bindings are my nemesis.
There is a tutorial on this site for a "Flange" binding that is really good and explains how to do a machine binding really well, as well as being really cute.
Even I can do it. :D (Mostly)
If you'd rather just do a straight machine binding, Jenny from Missouri Star has a great tutorial where she also shows you how to finish it....something I needed to see rather than just read about in order to get it right.
She also talks a bit about machine sewing it on the front and hand sewing it to the back, if that's what you plan to do.
Regardless of how you want to finish it, there are lots of Youtubes that will help you out and lots of knowledge here to tap into.

Thanks for all the great advice, gonna watch videos later and figure it out. I'm comfortable with hand sewing, so may go that route, on the back !!

MaryJo,
If you are going to hand finish, here's the best tutorial I've found. It's a 4-parter from McCall's that is SO super easy to follow:

I like how The Crafty Gemini (Vanessa) explains binding. I watched a lot of tutorials, but hers really "clicked" with me. I go back to it again because I have a mental block when it comes to binding, for some reason.
