What is the cut width of your binding strips?
#31
I used to cut mine at 2.5" but everytime I would have a few missed spots on the back.
I sew to the front turn and SID on front. T4 for my last quilt I cut the binding at 2 5/8" and
I'm pleased to say that I didn't miss any at the back. I can also say I made a perfect
(to me) binding with perfect miters.

I'm so glad you posted this. I've often wondered how much variation there was. Mostly, I use 2-1/4, but it depends somewhat on the appearance I want on the quilt. If it's a wall hanging and I want a very narrow binding, I'll cut about 1-3/4.
