go to www.quilterstv.com and under Quilters Cafe search for my show on bindings. This is done without any tools.
I probably have all the "special binding" tools made and found very little use for them. I do know that others have found these gadgets helpful. |

I, too bought the F&P binding tool (for joining the beginning and ending together) but discovered the better way as someone else described. Hope you can put up the tutorial because it sure is easy. Pics will help a bunch and I found that you have your measurement from a piece of the extra binding you just made that tells you how much to cut off. I will look forward to the tutorial. I can do it but not explain it well.

I bought Fons & Porter's Binding Ruler but never used it. For me, I just use an iron when making the binding and when I apply it, I only use my wooden iron. Never needed anything else.
