2 sided binding
#1
Sometimes the binding that I want to put on the front of a quilt just doesnt look that great with the backing. To remedy that situation I make 2 sided binding. (judges love it!) here is a site that explains it very clearly.

Sounds interesting! I will have to make up a little sample and see how it goes. I have a quilt right now that I've been pondering my binding on. I have wood grain on the front edge and a bright green on the back. I was considering a black binding that would look good with the green but just okay with the front. This may be my solution!
