I just bought a tube of Elmer's washable school glue. It says that it has two tips. One that is a fine tip and a regular tip. I haven't opened the package to look yet.

I'm hoping to try it soon.

Wow -- that was a great video!

However, I still don't "get" how you put the 2 pieces of binding together at the end :oops: :oops: :oops: :oops:

This is a great tutorial on how to join the ends of your binding. Hope it helps.

Thanks Minda!! I printed that out a little bit ago and had it right beside me
while I was binding my latest table runner. I fiddled and fussed with that
just about forever. Every time I made that final seam, it wasn't right!
Finally, I just did it the "sloppy" way and said, "I'm done!" :oops: :oops: :oops:

Great video on binding, I will certainly try it on my next one. Never used Elmers glue before, but it sure looks like it makes it much easier to stabilize the binding. I also liked the ladder stitch she used for hand sewing.

Thank you for posting that link. I found it very educational and most of all helpful.. Maybe my next binding will look great! :lol:

Thank you, I guess I will have to try the gluing thing.

Here's how I do the ends of my binding so they measure just right:

Great video. And Sandpat, I sew my binding on just like yours. Works great.

That is the same method I use and it works great for me too.
