Having spent more than 12 hours yesterday hemming the binding on a single bed sized quilt by hand, I'm kicking myself for being too busy hemming to read my blogs! That's life! But next time will be far less of a chore.<br />As for your pube-tucking, that's what makes this not just an excellent tutorial, but a brilliant one: number one educational maxim; Give 'em something to remember!Marlyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13395982229464502358noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6513356584940430771.post-83567490029230023412014-05-04T03:06:31.298+01:002014-05-04T03:06:31.298+01:00Thank you soooo much for this Tutorial!!

I don't mind that extra line of stitching that shows on the front if you do it the fold-to-the-back way. Sheesh, I've just spent many hours deliberately stitching quilting lines all over that thing, what's one more? <br />Super-time-saver tip: skip the clips! I just fold over a couple of inches at a time as I go, and hold in place with my fingers. <br />Delighted you've posted such a good tutorial, now I can just send people here instead of explaining in detail how I do it. That will really save me time!Venus de Hilohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00424101811517659566noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6513356584940430771.post-32501398538996469912014-05-03T02:42:40.494+01:002014-05-03T02:42:40.494+01:00Laughing, learning, and quilting all together!

Tip: When I fold my binding to the front, I glue baste it in place and press. Question: I can never seem to get nice miters on the front of the quilt. The corners look perfect from the back.
