Great idea!
|
Too cool!! Adds a really nice touch to plain old binding. I think it will bridge the quilt colors with the binding color/s. THANK YOU.
|
I'll have to try that I hate hand sewing.
|
Thanks, love this idea.
|
WOW How cool is that?!
|
What a great way to do thedreaded binding, I never seem to get it right. This looks like a lot of work made easy. Thanks for sharing.
|
I love the way you did that binding. I have a baby quilt to make and will try that method. Does look real easy.
Thanks. |
thank you for sharing this
|
Loverly! I have seen two color binding but not done this way so still had the hand sewing to do. Thanks a ton.
|
Wow, what a great accent to do it with two colors. I have always put binding on back and folded to the front and finished off by machine with a squiggle stitch in thread to match the binding, then it just blends right in. Of course the quilt police always tell me that is not a "legal" binding, and I don't pay attention as I give away another quilt that is finished. So I love the flange idea!! Thanks again.
|
Wow that looks great! Thank you!
|
That is such a good idea! I hand sew my binding to the front also and once tried machine stitching but didn't like it at all. This looks much nicer so i will try it. thanks for the tute!!
|
I'll be trying this one. Thanks a bunch!
|
I will be looking for ways to put cord into that peeper in order to give it more definition as well. Many thanks.
|
Thank y 4 sharing this new looking binding. Good idea
|
Wonderful idea - can't wait to try it. Will have to get busy, as I don't have anything anywhere near ready for quilting or binding!
|
Thanks soo much for posting this tut!! I had never seen a binding done this way before. I was just finishing a tablerunner and couldn't decide on the binding color so I used this method. I love the effect!! I have to admit my miters didn't come out as neatly as yours or as neatly as mine usually do when I sew a binding to the front first and fold to the back. But I will definitely use this method again and hopefully improve on my corners! Thanks again!!
|
Like others have expressed, I love this board because people are so willing to share ideas and to help others. Thanks for this tut.
|
This sounds like a great time saver and I love the accent flange! Wonderful idea and I'll definitely use it on my next project. Thank you so much for sharing this idea and taking your time to make a tut for us! Highly appreciated!!
|
Awesome. This is going to be sooooo useful for all these last minute Christmas things I'm trying to finish. Thanks for sharing.
|
This method is a little like one used by Ricky Tims in his videio 'Grand Finale' - it's a video well-worth buying! He uses a slightly finer fabric for the insert, placing a length of embroidery thread in the middle of it to make a very fine piped edge. It is then turned to the right side and stitched in-the -ditch so that no stitching shows. I've tried it and the result is exceptionally good - looks very professional!
|
Wow, this is a great effect! I know I will trying this binding more for the look than the speed.
|
MAN...I wish I saw this earlier this week. I have 2 quilts I needed done in a hurry and have only finished one. I have my binding already sewn on the other but that one is gonna have to wait for the hand sewing.
Thank you so much for this Tute :thumbup: :thumbup: I will try it soon. |
Thank you, that is very neat! You also now have a fansy border as well. I like this very much.
|
Thanks for sharing! What a fabulous idea.
I love it when it seems like magic - and it's super easy and quick. I will remember this trick and pass it on to my quiting buddies too. |
What a cool idea....thanks!
|
Love this idea! I will try it with my next quilt!
|
I did this on a tablerunner and plan do it again on other quilts. Nice tutorial.
|
I'm going to do this on the very next quilt I bind!
|
great info can't wait to try it
|
Thank you, that is awesome!
|
Thank you so much. I think I can follow this tute very well. You did a good job and it looks easy to.
|
?
When you do the corners is it the same way a normal as stopping a 1/4 inch and take out of machine then make your miter and stitch Love this Thanks Gale |
Thank you for sharing -- what a fun binding to do
|
Great tute. Will give it a try.
|
I am looking forward to trying this method on my two quilts that I have in process! Thanks!
|
Would this work if I used a 1" for the flange or fake piping and 2" for the other binding strip? The end result is still 2.5 inch??
|
I tried this today, so simple. I will probably never hand sew binding again.
|
Ditto!
