Grandmother's Quilt binding irregular shape solved
1 Attachment(s)
For color reasons, I have purchased the prefolded quilt binding.. Preferring to make my own, but color was difficult to match.. oddly enough.
I cut the prefolded quilt binding in half. ironed flat, ironed in half and folded toward the center fold seam. 3/8 inch finished binding dimension. The narrow binding is easy to accept the hills and valleys of this quilt pattern . Photos do not show completed quilt but the details of the narrow binding and all hand sewed. This works ! Just sharing ! Best Regards, Ell |
Beautiful quilt and a wonderful job.

you were lucky a very good match

Who wudda thunk premade binding would match your fabric!! Just goes to show you, huh! Thanks for sharing the tip.

Chairjogger, thank you for sharing this tip. Your quilt and binding are beautiful!

Beautiful quilt. Great match. I use packaged binding fairly often because of time constraints with making bias binding. However, I often use the extra wide double fold rather than the actual quilt binding-it is narrower than the quilt binding and seems to go around curves and corners better for me.
