Wonderful tutorial and perfect timing...I have just cut 7 strips of binding for a quilt so I’m going to try this method. I also use Sharon Schamber’s glue method rather than pins.

I have struggled with trying to make my corners flatter. I did learn the lesson on not trimming the corners off like on a garment, and it is not a good idea. (Whimpy corners look awful) now I have the answer. Got to try trimming off that little piece. Amazing how we learn things we did not know we needed, until we read them here. Thank you.
