The only thing different I do is cut the angle on the first strip before I start sewing. Attach binding around quilt. Then I stop sewing about 10 inches from angled end. Slip end into fold of binding and mark angle. Cut angle 1/2 inch longer than marked angle (two quarter inch seam allowances. Match edges and stitch

I have seen this technique on a youtube video and it's the technique I will use on my next binding, but this gives me a wonderful PDF I can print in color and put in my 3 ring quilting binding for quick reference. I'm a visual person. Thank you for the post.

I've only just discovered that tutorial. I think someone here posted it. I've used it a few times and I had perfect joins every time. I just love that method!

You and me too. I always seem to turn one side wrong and have to start over at least once. I hate that last step so maybe this tutorial will stop me from making that same mistake.

Thank you for posting the link. I have joined the binding ends this way and have always had success.
One exception, is the space I allow between the starting strip and the ending strip is approx. 12 - 13 inches on a project of throw size or larger.
