    Agree that is bias binding. I've used it once for a NYB quilt that was all circles on the edge. Used youtube videos. Key is to read the directions, read again, & maybe make a practice strip. Once I got the concept, it was the easiest binding to work with & came out beautifully. Good luck but patience is the key. kathy

    it can look confusing but it does work giving you a long piece of binding. i did it once and that was enough. I don't use bias often though. If i did, I might go for that method again. try it sometime with some fabric you can use on something but not a nice one. then if it doesn't work well, no problem. Good luck!!

    You are welcome! Ever since I was shown how to do this it's the only method I use! You do need a square piece of fabric to do it.
