Love the chunky binding! Great tutorial and fantastic camera work. Some of the best close-up shots ever. I have a pieced top that is ready to be quilted and this binding technique will be the perfect finish for it.

I love the videos with Carrie! What kind of batting did she use in the quilt on the table at the end? I love how it looks like a vintage quilt!

This tip on placing tape down to know where to stop sewing when making a mitered corner is awesome. Thanks for a great lesson!

@CJ43JC43 2 года назад

Way to many seems, makes for bulky binding. This is not for me, thank you for sharing. 💕

@kschallert3569 5 лет назад

I've watched so many videos on binding, still not brave enough to do it, but soon! But honestly, this video is making me feel more courageous...... you are a very good teacher, and your voice is so calm and easy to listen to. Yours is the most beautiful binding I've seen so far. I suppose the difference is doing it by hand, rather than machine binding. Also, many tutorials are always RUSHING, going so fast, it gets sloppy. I'm sort of handicapped by perfectionism.... ugh... so I think when I finish my first real quilt I will HAVE to bind it by hand. Thank you for making it look so easy! Do you personally have more videos about quilting? I would watch them all! Thx again!

@CathrynCadeRomanceAuthor 10 месяцев назад

Good teaching never grows old! Just found this video, exactly what I need. So well done - thanks a million.

@SuperBettyboop23 7 лет назад

Thank you so much for sharing this it was very interesting I also was curious about how to apply a bigger binding I love it!! 😍

@mmaliboobarbie 6 лет назад

Carrie Nelson--wow what a great teacher! She's perfect. Thank you.

@JacquiViljoen 5 лет назад

Thank you so much I love this more than narrow binding, though guess each one will fit if it is in the planning. Great class.

@Wyldhare47 4 года назад

That was perfect...great to see her stitches up real close..that has helped me so much..thankyou...I always did single fold binding..but used my machine to stitch it ..from the front..n in the ditch...so much easier for me..but I sure like this tut..I shall try it..🙋🏼‍♀️🌻🐝

@bordershader 5 лет назад

Fantastic, but showing how to join the individual strips would have been handy, it's not intuitive and I had to do a lot of unpicking 🙄😫

@stephaniemiller8229 5 лет назад

What a HELPFUL tutorial! The filming was top notch and made it easy to see each step. Thanks for your help!❤️😊

@drmichaelelinski6992 5 лет назад

Excellent demonstration of your wide binding technique. Came out looking very poofy and elegant. I’ll have to try this method on one of my new quilts. Thank you!

@b.bailey8244 4 года назад

I really like how you go slowly, explain every step, and how the camera work shows what you are doing beautifully. This is a great tutorial.

@adelawiley2929 6 лет назад

Sometimes for these edges I use my serger to secure the edges . Makes it cleaner, to me.

@ellenhofer3343 4 года назад

I just got a serger & will try serging the quilt edge before binding

@littleluluscraps 2 года назад

If you have like 3 yards of fabric can the strips be cut down the length or does it always have to be on the bias (diagonal)?

@iampaperprincess 7 лет назад

Thank you ladies! Carrie, you're a natural teacher and seem so at ease in front of the camera! Nice to see you in another spot in addition to the Moda blog! :) Super detailed and wonderful tutorial...i just love the wide binding. May I ask why you don't pre-iron the second fold for when you attach the binding to the back of the quilt? Seems like it would be a little less cumbersome.

@CloudyWishes 7 лет назад

i am curious about this as well. Though i did think that maybe it's about the finish?

@maplelassuk 6 лет назад

Wow, I loved this tutorial Carrie...so clear and closely focused for learning! I have never seen this done before and would love to try it. The tip for the seam allowance with tape is great, and how to put the needle down and roll up the mitre was amazing, as well as the end join. Definitely a tutorial for reference, thank you so much!

@joanhzamojcin98 6 лет назад

So nice to know the quilt police won't come and get me for not using a bias seam on my bindings. Sometimes it's just quicker and easier to do the 1/4 inch seam. Great teaching style.

@CC-zd6nv 5 лет назад

Ok now this video is older but I just saw it for the first time and I can’t wait to try this method, it looks really nice 👍🏻

@meganmmell 7 лет назад

Lovely! I like the wide binding but is there any reason I couldn't do this with a straight grain cut binding? I admit I hate cutting bias binding strips..

@FatQuarterShopTX 7 лет назад

It's also a case of it lays a bit flatter. But it also wears better. With the single layer of fabric, it will be less rounded on the edge, a harder fold. But for something that won't get washed a lot, and where someone wants to use a stripe for a specific effect, is absolutely do a straight cut.

@mgs783 6 лет назад

Why would a bias cut wear better than straight of grain if both are being cut wide and single fold? I would also think double fold would wear better than single fold be it cut on bias or straight of grain. What is the rationale for single fold?

@lifeisgoodinthesouth210 5 лет назад

MGS I always use the straight cut and I’ve never had any issues. In my opinion the bus cut is a waste of time.

@mommay7 5 лет назад

Thank You for teaching us this method of single fold wide binding! There are times I have wanted a wider binding and didnt realize it was this easy. Fat Quarter Shop and Carrie Nelson are the best!

@madforbread 4 года назад

Wonderful tutorial, I've learned a lot. From making bias tape, single extra wide binding, corners, and the method to join the ends is the best I've ever seen! I'll be able to do this even on small quilt blocks, although I'm not sure how it will work for double fold binding. Thank you for taking the time to make this video. Top marks for the camera work too, super helpful.

@suzannakoizumi8605 3 года назад

@kimbankston4486 Год назад

I watched a lot of videos on binding and liked this one the most!! Question - why do you have to use BIAS binding for single fold binding?

@FatQuarterShopTX Год назад

Hello Kim! You do not need to use bias binding unless you are going around curves. If it is a straight binding, you do not need bias binding

@stephaniepublicker3824 6 лет назад

Thank you for the clearest instructions I’ve seen on joining the binding ends.

@marie-franceperrier6542 4 года назад

It would of been nice to show the strips were joined especially for the newbies to quilting

@emilymiersma7942 7 лет назад

Great tutorial! Carrie is an excellent teacher and I really enjoyed her technique. Love the look of the wide binding on the quilt. Is the quilt hanging in the back from one of the Moda cake mix recipes?

@FatQuarterShopTX 7 лет назад

Yes that is correct, Cake Mix #1.

@fizzknit9446 4 года назад

Thank you for the video. This is exactly the way I used to bind the edges of my patchwork projects in the distant past. Just back to making patchwork covers and hangings, after a long long time away from my sewing machine. Checked out a folding/double binding video, but that technique seems so clumsy and chunky. Double-binding also seems to give a home-made feel to the work; rather than the beautiful handcrafted look demonstrated in this excellent video.

@kathleenrohring4090 4 года назад

Carrie,what kind of tape do you use on the bed of your sewing machine?

@FatQuarterShopTX 4 года назад

Hi Kathleen, Carrie uses washi tape which you can find here: www.fatquartershop.com/washi-tape

@cherieiduke1723 6 лет назад

@moverheidi 5 лет назад

Super helpful, I agree! I keep watching for a way to do this and this seems doable, except for my vision to do hand sewing. I still struggle with that.

@roselinedugas5666 5 лет назад

I love the way you do your binding blind stitches and I will try to do it the reversed way compared to the one I always did with the quilt on my lap and the binding facing me. Thank you.

@janedillnutt9489 2 года назад

Very helpful tip have had a couple of mishaps when making binding from fabric and you automatically think that you have to fold your binding in half and start sewing and the washi tape hint is very helpful thankyou!

Thanks alot for this helping tutorial, it will solve my problems 🤯🤩👍🏻 Best regards Reni

@acebaker3623 3 года назад

Why do you do bias binding on a straight edge?

@FatQuarterShopTX 3 года назад

Hello Ace! There are different reasons one may want to use bias binding. The pattern of the fabric is one, if it's a straight stripe and they want to make it diagonal

@beckypoisson3545 4 года назад

@wildflowerwind6941 5 лет назад

I don't understand why people hand sew the binding down. A machine stitch would look just fine.

Instead of two pieces of washi tape, i could use lori holts seams so easy guide right?

@BobbiSalvini Год назад

I was a self taught quilter and had no idea what folded double binding was until I retired and started watching tons of quilting tutorials. I always did the single fold and would also fold and tack a layer of the batting over for baby quilts to make the edge softer. The other difference is I use a ladder stitch for the hand sewing as I don't like that only a few threads are holding it down. . I like this method so much better. If I am using bias binding I recomend a row of stiching just inside the final stitch line before the binding is added so the edge gets more sepport. I have restored several old quilts and the edges get tugged on alot and the stretching is hard on the piece work. Thank you for letting me know I wasn't doing anything wrong! Is this acceptable for quilt competitions?

@FatQuarterShopTX Год назад

Hello Bobbi! When entering a quilt in a competition , all judges have their own way of how they like binding. The best bet is to read the rules of the show you are entering. There is not right or wrong way to do anything in quilting. No Quilt Police!

@coolcapri2 6 лет назад

When doing this binding is the seam allowance always 3/4 inch or does it depend on the width? If so how do you figure that out if you do a different width?

@patrick7mary 5 лет назад

Wow I love the wider binding also! So when you say you use the seam for your border outline when you trim the rough edges, meaning you line up the binding on top of your work as you have here and cut off the extra selvage for a clean border? And assuming you run that great zigzag stitch along seam to keep your material (quilt batting) from bunching up, so maybe that is what you use for trimming excess border selvage? Sorry I have pieced a quilt by hand (from when my Grandmother taught me before she died) but I am anxious to complete a quilt from start to finish. Love your clear cut direction! (And I do have that same cutting board and rotary cutter, and love all that elbow room you have with that bright light : makes a big difference !!!) Thank You Kimberly and Carrie!!! Mary from TN 💗🌻💗

@reneerouse5560 6 лет назад

Awesome information but I would have liked to see you see the binding together. I tried it but it didn’t come together like yours. Is there anyway you could do another video that will show us how to connect the binding together?

@littlequiltsong9576 7 лет назад

Thank you Carrie and Fat Quarter Shop for this video tutorial! Very nicely done and explained - especially for us 'visual learners' :)! Love the look it gives the quilt!

@painting55 5 лет назад

Why bias bindings for straight, non curved, bindings? I cut crossway selvage to selvage unless I need it for a rounded binding.

@ellenhofer3343 4 года назад

I was taught that bias binding was used on shaped type pieces, circles, ovals, scalloped edges, etc., and that it was fine to use lengthwise cut strips for square & rectangle shapes. Or, if some stretch was needed for some reason, cross wise strips were used. I will definately the method described in my next project. Thank you for a great videio!

@tamarmcginnis8610 3 года назад

I bought cute floral appliques for corners of my quilt. They really match the quilt fabric

@wog1949 7 лет назад

@joannmccraw7235 4 года назад

Glad to see some people do still hand bind and how to do it properly and without being seen! The stitching tip on the mitered corners is great ... seems common sense after you see it, but you don't always realize everything at the beginning. Thank-you for your time and sharing your knowledge with us.

@IdratherbeinHobbiton 7 лет назад

Awesome tutorial! Love the detailed explanation. Thanks! And I love the half square triangle quilt hanging behind y'all!

@cathieowen6586 7 лет назад

You chose a 7/8 inch finished binidng - why or how do you choose the seam allowance - should it be the same as the finished binding or 1/4 less

@equitime77 5 лет назад

This seems to make more sense to me than double fold. Some very good tips, esp how to do the join. I can see how I could machine stitch it all, as I don't hand bind my quilts

@monicajohnson3211 6 лет назад

what is the point to doing it this way? it's gorgeous but just seems like a lot of work and a waste of fabric?

@donnazappala7738 3 года назад

@Thegardenwhatcanbedone 7 лет назад

not that it would matter in most of my quilts but I love the look and I am wondering what quilt judges would think?

@AnonymousAmyMakes 5 лет назад

At 14:15, when she is marking the end of the binding she marked it at 1/2 inch seam allowance. But after she cut and was joining them to pin, she said 1/4 inch seam allowance. Am I misunderstanding what she means? Other than that, this was an amazing video!! Thank you Ladies!

@hollywaddell6727 5 лет назад

Anonymous Amy: She marked the 1/2 inch line for her cutting line on the longest tail of the binding strip. One-half inch of extra fabric is needed because when joining the two cut ends together with a 1/4 inch seam allowance, the total fabric taken up in that seam allowance is 1/2 inch. Another way to put it is ... 1/4 inch on one raw edge, plus 1/4 inch on the other raw edge within the seam allowance equals a total of 1/2 inch of fabric used up by the seam allowance. Thus the reason for marking the cutting line 1/2 INCH BEYOND the raw edge of the shortest tail of the binding strip to allow for the 1/4 inch seam allowance being taken up on both raw edges of the biding tails. Think of it as the same principle as when cutting the pieces for a block pattern ... the pattern pieces are cut 1/2 inch larger than the desired finished size to allow for the 1/4 inch seam allowance being taken up on both sides of the pattern piece when joined to its neighbor.

Is there a reason why we couldn't do it the traditional way and use folded/double binding instead of a single fold?

@lisasaavedra8619 7 лет назад

I did a throw with a wide binding about a year ago. I used traditional cut, double fold when I did it. I will say it looked more bulky than this binding did, but I was also a reasonably new quilter and it was the first time I had ever tried it, so that could have been more error on my part.

@FatQuarterShopTX 7 лет назад

Per Carrie, the double-fold binding simply doesn't lay flat enough for her- it poufs up. Therefore it will technically work, and it can be made using double-fold binding, it just uses up more fabric and isn't flat. Thanks for your question!

@mmaliboobarbie 6 лет назад

Lisa Saavedra thank you for sharing :)

@nanette7fl 6 лет назад

WOW great video. I do have a question though. I'm a sewer who is learning to quilt....Question is I saw when you were sewing on the final bit after you joined your two pieces together and you went back a bit past where you ended sewing your seam allowance. Wouldn''t it be better to tack it down (back sewing) or doesn't it really matter? Thank you. I really enjoyed the lesson.

@FatQuarterShopTX 6 лет назад

It's all personal preference. You just don’t want to backstitch too much because you may create additional bulk in your binding.

@RudyRay01 6 лет назад

Great video. I am looking forward to using a wide binding soon. Thanks.

@lindapucillo3493 4 года назад
