    I love reading all the replies, I have a problem, I think it gets here. I use 2 1/2 " binding, but when sewing binding on, I realized it is not "full". What can I do? I think I cut too much off!! Please help!!

    I use 2.5 inch strips folded in half. I sew the binding on before I trim the quilt. I use a 1/4 inch seam. When I trim the batting and backing I put the ruler on the seam line at the 1/2 inch mark. That allows a 1/4 inch of batting to fill the binding when I ladder stitch it to the back.
