Hi Whisper, sorry it took me a while to get back to you, have been knee deep in old roofing iron (long story :lol: ). Hope the following helps. Is not much different from doing a 90 degree corner just need to make the angle of the fold as you take the binding around the corner a little different.

I have used double fold straight cut binding, has less give than bias.
Step 1 mark where seam lines will meet on quilt body, thensew binding to quilt edge till u get to mark, back stitct, remove from machine.

Step 2 Fold binding back at an angle so that binding becomes an extension of the next side you are going to sew. Then fold binding back over itself so that it is now lying over the edge you wish to join it to (see picture)
Dratt the picturs have got muddled up, have labled them step1 etc, so hope that'll be ok

Step 3 Make a mark on the binding where you can feel the folds underneath. Start your new seam at this mark, careful not to catch underneath folds in stitching.
