I have done that and it works very well. It really isn't hard either. Thanks for reminding me, I need to use it more often.

looks good. I can't decide what fabric to use for my binding on a baby quilt I'm making. Now I can decide on 2 of them! One can be the finding and the other can be the piping.

In 2002, my guild did something like that as apart of the Know it All block. actually went quite well for me. Some had fits over it, possibly because they did not read the directions.

This binding has become a favourite in some of the groups I belong to. In fact... next Sunday one of my guilds is doing a Finishing Party for some charity quilts - the tops are all done, so we're basting, tying and binding a dozen or so quilts. A couple of our more gung-ho members have volunteered to bind all of the quilts using this method.

It's also about the only way I will machine-finish a binding. I stink at that whole stitch-in-the-ditch thing because I always "miss" spots on the back; this method gives me a nice guideline and I don't have to try to catch the binding folded over to the back.

That's kind of what I thought when I read it....I too don't do well with the stitch in the ditch thing.
