Help with scalloped binding?
 
1 Attachment(s)
I am putting together a signature quilt for my parents' 60th anniversary using this pattern. It's called "Diamond Wedding Ring".

I have never done a pattern like this so I made myself this little table runner to practice all the curved piecing before I make their quilt. My question is how does one attach a binding to an edge like this. I know it will need to be cut on the bias. I'm not concerned about the outside curves, it's all those inside corners that have me more than a little worried. Any tips you can share are welcome.

I use Sharon Schambers method for curved binding.

You could also do facing rather than binding.

I clip the inside corners about 1/4". The quilt will pull fairly straight at the inside corners after clipping and the binding can easily be sewn on.
