Tutorial: Sewing on a Quilt Binding

One of the questions I get most asked about my quilts is how did I sew on that binding? It seems there are as many ways to sew on a binding as there are quilters! But a quilt with a binding with clean mitered corners really look fantastic!

Carol of QuiltLady50 has created a wonderful, easy-to-understand tutorial on binding your quilt with mitered corners. Just click here for the complete tutorial! (Just click on the first image then follow each image through the set for step-by-step instructions printed below each photo.)





If you have any question about the tutorial feel free to contact Carol through her flickr.com account (where you'll find the tutorial...just go to her Profile and click on Send FlickrMail). She'll be happy to lead you through any of the tricky parts!

And the beautiful quilt she used to demonstrate the binding is currently for sale in her shop!

Great job on the binding, it was the hardest thing to get right when I started quilting!
