Double-mitered binding
 

I took a class where I learned this technique. In this method you sew each corner of the binding individually. The teacher recommended that we make a small sample and mark each corner with part of the technique. That way we have something to refer to when our memory leaves us in the lurch.

Here is the pdf with pictures.

That looks really interesting just glancing at the pictures. I'll have to take the time to read it closely. Thanks for the info.

Thank you so much for the info..........I will give it a try next time:)

It would save time from having to hand sew eacch one of those diagonal seams which is what I do now..thanks !

yes -- agree it would save some time from hand sewing the corners.

Printing and going to try this. Thanks so much for your very good instructions.:)

That looks like it would work! I'm going to have to give that a try next time! Thanks for the post

this is incredible! a bit of work, but sooo much nicer looking! Thank you for sharing

Thank You for sharing! I just watched a video on binding with a tool from Creative Grids and it is the same concept. Now I don't have to buy a new tool, I can just use my ruler. Have you tried this method with any other angles?

What a good idea. Thank you for sharing.

Thanks for sharing. I have seen them done so many ways. I will try this on my elephant wall hanging tonight.

This is very interesting. I did a quilt where I would have liked the binding to change color at the corners but didn't know how to do that. This technique would have worked. Thanks!

Going to rip out the binding on my hexagons and try this. Thank you for sharing this.

Thank you for the your time that you took to make this tutorial. I will have to try it.

Thanks for this. I will have to try it.

I have not but the gals in class discussed that they could use it for other angles. One said she used it on a hexagon which means you would have more strips to start with.

This is also a great method if you want different fabrics for the bindings on each side.

Thanks... that was interesting and informative.

thanks a gazillion, Mad. :thumbup:

Thank you for sharing.!

Now that's different. I'll give it a try, thanks!

Thanks. The final touch.

That looks great...will try it!

Wow!Thank you!

Wow looks so nice... I will try it on next quilt
Thanks for the share.

Thank you.Ready to try it.

Great Tutorial. thanks for sharing.

That makes a super neat corner.

That explains clearly what I was trying (unsuccessfully) to do with my binding on the baby quilt I'm almost done with. Now maybe I can get it to work right! THANKS!!!

If at first you don't succeed, try try again. Good luck.

Looks great I will have to try this

I definitely will try that next time. Thanks!

Thanks lots. I will print the pdf file and give it a try with my next binding.

Thank you so much for posting this. I never have liked hand sewing the miter; this makes the miter look a lot better to me.

I do nearly all of my binding using a method very much like this one.

Using the "X" marking will save me steps. :)

Thanks very much for sharing this. :thumbup:

Thanks for sharing.

i really like the way that loo! thanks, nell, definitely worth trying!

This is how I do it, but I use the corner of my ruler to draw that little triangle. When I did the continuous binding I was redoing that part where I would join it over and over.

Thank you so very much for sharing :)

Wonderful tutorial..Thanks..I will have to try it
