    I learned this method from a video of Pin, Cut, Sew. Love using this method.

    Yes, I found this method on RUclips two years ago, and it changed my life. I no longer have binding fears. It does leave a little more bulk, but like you pointed out, you can't tell once it's finished. So many quilts stayed unfinished before learning this hack. Thanks for sharing. More quilters will hopefully learn this method and save them binding stress.

      Everyone needs to know! I honestly never knew people did it differently until years after I started quilting. ❤️

    Hey - you shared my secret 😆. I do a few hand stitches once the binding is folded and sewn down.

    Yes, that is how I've been doing it for years. That bit that the quilt books showed us in the 70s?? I tried it twice, and discovered this works just as well, and I haven't pulled my hair out or punched holes in the walls, since.😂.And, it is hard to see anyway, where we joined the ends.💁‍♀️ More quilts finished, and my sanity is still intact.😊

    Hi Emma Jane. This is very similar to how i learned binding at the beginning. I could never quite get it right but after seeing this I think i was doing it wrong. I now do it the traditional way but i love this video and how you showed it.

    I would never have thought of folding and tucking in the raw edges, this is a great idea. I will give it a go. Many thanks

      It's definitely easier, and more fun. Really, you can't tell the difference from sewing the ends together inside out,🫣 and it's hard to see unless you really look for it.

    Awesome! Wish I had watched this video about 2 hours ago. 😂 Would have saved me a date with Jack the Ripper to get to the end result! Thank you!

    Thank you for that. I have never enjoyed doing my own binding. I've struggled through it & it's frustrating. I've paid someone one else to put the binding on for me. It's like torture. So I'll give your idea a try. It looks like it is worth the effort to try it.

      Oh goodness! I'm glad this was helpful for you. I like binding because it's the last step. I'll be putting out more videos on binding. Be sure to subscribe so you will get notified when my videos come out. 🙂

    When you piece your binding strips together do you have to sew diagonally??? Can you just sew a straight line seam and trim it?? Thanks!!!

    • @emmajanedreamitquiltit9776
      @emmajanedreamitquiltit9776  Месяц назад +1

      Yes! For years I sewed diagonally until one day I’m like- why am I doing this? 😂 Now, I do a straight line seam and trim.
