check out the elna tutorial link I posted- they show how to deal with mitered corners and how to end it with the binding attachments.

Saw these at a show. Would like to hear more cuz they are a little pricey if I remember right.

I paid $25 for mine through ebay (sewing machine supplier), I'll post a picture when I can. I know that it's going to be great if I can just figure out how to use it. ;-)

I'm binding now and it takes me ~4 evenings to complete the binding of a quilt. Granted, it's enjoyable and relaxing, but sometimes I don't have 4 days to bind a quilt.

Ok, so I just read through the elna tutorial posted above. I am thinking this is a really cool tool. I H A T E binding, and this just might be the thing I need. :)
