I had an instructor tell me she paid $200 for a class to learn how to do this on her own..and she taught it to us, but I'll tell ya, if you don't pay attention to what you are doing, (and I never seem to be all there) you can screw it up. This tool is just the ticket. I just have to remember how to use all these gadgets, and there are MANY of them. Saw the curved foot, and I am a GO on that gizzy too..Joanie

awesome, thanks for the information as I just called Jenny at Missouri Quilt Company on the phone and chatted with her
I cut mine anywhere from 2 to 2 1/2 works fine, no problem. But that is about as wide as I make mine normally. Most of the time 2 1/2. The tool itself is 2 1/2 wide.
One of the best investments I have made.

Craftybear - That's great! I have used their videos a lot to learn new techniques or brush up on the basics. I am still an intermediate newbie so I can use all the help I can get and their videos fit the ticket perfectly.

I called Jenny at Missouri Quilt Company about the binding tool. I asked her if you could use it to make different sizes and she wasnt' sure and was going to check it out for me. I will call her back in a few weeks to find out what she discovered. I told her I liked the 2nd video better as it was easier to understand.

when I talked to Jenny at Missouri Quilt Company I told her that we were discussing this on the board, and that she would probably be getting orders
(I am not affiliated at all with Missouri quilt Company, just found this cool tool and her site was selling them) so I called her on the phone
