I have one of those. They work great and make it so easy!

I make my own binding 2 1/2". You may already know this but just in case a helpful tip when making your own binding (read it somewhere a long time ago but don't remember where) is to pin a safety pin at the end of your ironing board and guide your binding through it as you are pressing. This works great for me and might be helpful to you and others. Since I enjoy making scrap quilts I make scrappy bindings.

I make my own, 2 1/4 is the cut I use, but need to get one of the binding makers I have heard about.

I make my own 2 1/2" bias binding using the continuous binding strip method and iron a single fold. I then fold it accordion style into a plastic bowl with a slot cut in the lid and feed the beginning edge out the slot. I have been saving my leftovers to use on smaller or scrappy projects.

I make my own. I like the idea of being able to match my binding however I want. I usually use a piece of what I have in the quilt.

I make my own binding using a continuous tube strip method and cutting it 2 1/2" wide if cotton and 3" if flannel. I often cut bindings ahead in colours that I know I will need (red, dark blue, green) press and roll them on paper towel rolls and stick them in my binding bin. As I usually make scrap quilts, these pre-made bindings are often just what I need. I save any leftovers and use them for bibs or join them and use them on another scrap quilt.

I always make my own. 2 1/4 inch, cut on the bias I use a piece of PVC pipe, about 15" long and 2" diameter, and roll the assembled strip around it. Then can feed it easily on to the edge of the quilt.

I'm curious about those of you who say you use 3". If you're attaching it to the front of the quilt first, do you still use a 1/4 seam? Seems like you'd have a lot of extra ... do you fold it all on to the back?

I do mine exactly like you, attempting being the key word. :)
