What is your favorite binding tool?

I use the perfect binding miter by Glenna - it is
www.quiltsnstuff.net - it really helps with mitering a corner.
Just checked out her website. Love it. Looks simple enough to miter the corners (never done it this way), and I have never seen anyone join the end the way she does either. For only $5, I think I will order this one. Thanks
You are very welcome - I bought a bunch of the mitering tools for my quilting group - they are happy with them also

Does the tool help with mitering, connecting the tails together (this is where I have the most difficult time) at the beginning and end, or some other function?

I wouldn't do a binding without the Binding Gizmo. One place you can see it is at:
http://www.nancysnotions.com/product...ok+and+tool.do
Or maybe you can do a search.
My niece, my sister, and I just love it and wouldn't be without. Good luck.

I get perfect corners every time and you can not tell where I started and ended, it looks just like any joining of strips. I will be giving a class in a few week, I will make a tutorial while preparing my samples for the class if anyone is interested.
