How to Sew Binding Ends Together
I came across this video and it is the clearest explanation I've found yet. While I haven't actually tried it, it certainly looks easy to execute.

Thanks, I just watched the tut!
I'm working on binding a quilt now and those ends get me every time for some reason. I usually baste them together first time just to be sure they fit. LOL!
It's certainly a project to do when you are in the right mood and not in a rush to finish.

I have done this method, and it works Perfectly. Jenny Doan with Missouri Star Quilt also has a video on You Tube showing this method.

I have been doing this for over thirtyyears. I always draw the diagonal line on the beginning of my binding when I make the binding. When starting to sew the binding, I use my hand width to measure the binding and quilt at the beginning and leave that free before I start sewing. When I get the end of sewing the binding on, I leave a hand width of quilt free. I only cut the ending side of the binding this way. Thanks for posting the tut.
