(How on earth do you do this type of binding without cutting the stupid backing fabric????
I have made so many quilts but have always used a separate binding which I would sew on the front and hand sew on the backing.
All I have to do is relax for one second and I mess the whole thing up!!!!!! This is so frustrating!!!)
I either fold the back to the back or I slide a ruler over the backing so that I can't cut through.
Then after the top and batting are trimmed, I measure 1 inch and trim the backing.
Fold in half, press and then fold over to the front.
