Double patchwork binding technique with Sallieann Harrison

This double binding technique gives you such a lovely finish on the front of your quilt (or project). It is straightforward under Sallieann’s guidance. She gives you measurements for both 2 1/2″ and 3″ binding (which is cut straight, not on the bias). She also talks you through the mitred corners and has a really neat tip on how to join the ends back with a mitred join. The final stage of anchoring the binding when you’ve turned it onto the front of your quilt, is also done using the sewing machine.  Watch Now+
