    Thank you for the info - I like to use bing.com for searches - www.bing.com - I find things easier on this search engine than on goggle

    Don't give up...once you learn how to use it you will love it...I took scraps and sat in front of my tv until I got it right...I can't tell you how many times I have ripped the seam apart but in the end I finally got it...

    Thanks for all your encouragement. BMP mine turned out too long too but then when you look at the video again that was where they had made an error originally. the correction to the placement of the tool really makes a difference.Now if it wasn't so far inbetween binding quilts I might remember how to do it. Guess I better get busy sewing. Thanks all.

    I just bought a tool at the Houston Quilt Festival. I haven't tried it yet, but hope I have success like you did.

    The instructions are written on the newer version of the tool, so it should not be a problem. You measure from the point on one side and from the mark at the beginning of the slant on the other side. Always keep the same side facing you and don't make the mistake of flipping it.
