How You Bind

As I was making binding last night for my current project, I was thinking how differently we all do things. Which made me curious what you do! Take a moment and tell me about how you bind, and I'll share the results in a future post!

    I use the Simplicity Binding Machine with 2.5 inch strips sewn together on the bias. Been doing it for years and would never go back to doing it with an iron!

    I tried to paste this link in the survey but it wasn't cooperating. This is for bias cut with a rotary cutter.

    I did the survey but forgot to mention this tip I learned waaaaay back at the beginning: start sewing the binding in the middle of a long side. That way your "home stretch" will be quicker.

    I also meant to mention....from seeing what other people do I think I may be the only one who does this...I pin my binding to the quilt sandwich before I start sewing it down. I can't even say why I think this is necessary but I have always done it so I continue to! Also, I always lay the binding out on the quilt before starting just to make sure that none of the seam joins will land on the corners, and adjust as needed.
