Cute Pumpkin Table Runner, but how do I bind it?

I have pieced two of this pumpkin pattern in the last couple of weeks. I like it because it can be used throughout the fall season.

I am not affiliated with this company/designer, am just a happy customer. But, how do you bind a corner that is not 90 degrees, but is 135 degrees instead? Any tips or advice? Thanks!

you always line up the binding straight back from what ever line you are working on. The angle really doesn't matter. At least that has been my experience. That is a cute pattern!

I do as DebraK said. Stitch binding until 1/4" from edge, then fold binding back to the new angle (instead of the 90 degree angle) and stitch starting at the edge. I have done with straight grain and bias and both work well.
Cute runner pattern!
