Posting this link for Schnookie to find. We were just on Facebook chatting about it. Thank you again, Deb, for showing it to me. I use this all the time.

Thanks for posting the link again. Great tut, the instructions sounds easy enough to follow.

So question here, is it always better to use a bias binding cut or when is it better to use a on the grain binding? Do you always use a double folded binding, if not, when would you use a single fold?

I always used folded binding. Just like in that tut. I use one grain unless there are curved edges on the quilt or a striped fabric for the binding that I want on the diagonal.

Look what I found it's the tut on youTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PU9oqEL09XU&feature=related This helped me see what is happening, the ladies are fun to listen to also...there are two videos to it. Bias Binding Demo #1 then #2 Oh this is how I am going to cut binding from now on...Thank you Luv's so much for showing me !!

I use single fold binding cut on the straight grain..unless I'm doing curved or scalloped edges, then I use bias cut.
I don't do double fold because I figure if one layer wears through..it's time for new binding? I won't leave the quilt with a worn through edge. It takes less fabric too!

Oh, No. YouTube. How in the world will I find time to quilt now?


I haven't tapped into that world for quilting ideas. Now I am totally in trouble!
