Hi!
Wasn't sure how to title this without making it super long. I am making two table runners, and both don't have a straight edge. The one is a double wedding ring, the other is a Trip around the World, with the edge kind of like a step. How do I bind this? No clue and I really need help

Thank you

use bias binding on anything with curves. And straight of grain binding on anything with straight edges.

you can also do a pillowcase edge...stitch back to frontand batting with RIGHT sides together..leaving enough room to turn right side out - turn, then finish the opening with hand stitching and topstitch/quilt the runner.

I, too, have wondered how to bind corners that aren't 90 degrees, like the pointed ends of a table runner. I've been turning and stiching 1/4" along the edge, but I'd like a contrast binding. How do you do this?

For straight edges and angles other than 90 degrees, Stop 1/4" from corner and back stitch. Fold binding up so it extends the line of the next side. Fold back down and stitch like you would for a 90 degree corner. I have found that this works for me.
For the inner corners, I put a pin in the V, splitting the V in half.
Stop at the pin with the needle down, clip from the raw edge of the binding almost to the needle, pivot and continue along the next side.

I watched these last night and they will show how to bind the DWR.

This thread is a learning experience for me. Thanks for the info.

Apart from the bias binding approach, you could put right sides together, with your quilt and backing, and sew all around the outside edge.Leave a small space to pull everything through to the right side and finish off the seam with a bit of hand sewing. If the quilt is already quilted, just put a few lines of stitching in the ditch to keep it all together, and run around the edge to form a stitched border. If it is not quilted, you just start and do it at that stage. I think this sort of backing looks nice on some quilts.
