I love to make these table runners. My question is: Does anyone know of a way to do binding instead of doing the inside out method. I want to quilt them and then add binding if possible. I know it would have to be bias binding, but is there a way to do the points on the ends? If so, can you explain it to me???
Thanks for any help you can give me.

I just do a regular binding, and do the corners the same as a quilt, but angle the fabric so it lines up the same amount as the angle of the table runner. In other words, on a quilt you would make a right angle( 90 degrees ) at the corners. On the table runner it might be 45 degrees. Is that clear? Hope it helps. I always start and stop on one of the long sides too, so it's easier to finish the binding.

If you cut the ends to more of a point, would something like this help you?

I put bias binding on mine and I mitered the corners at the ends like I would a regular quilt. Some where there is a picture of my spiral table runner. I think you posted on it and it is the one with the orange and greens and it has a yellow binding on it. It was the very first picture I posted on here when I joined up. I like it better than the inside out method. Huggies, Fay
