Joining the Ends of Binding 

Thank you for teaching this slowly…for us older folks! This is the best video I’ve seen for joining binding!!! Thank you!!

Thank you for your very clear instructions. They were tremendously helpful.

THANK YOU SO MUCH! This has helped me immensely! Your explanation was fantastic. I truly appreciate this. ❤

Hi, Randi! Thank you SO much for this awesome joining video! I have been quilting for a long time but always have to look up how to join the ends. Now that I have found your method, I will be using it from now on! I just managed to make a perfect join for my quilt which I will be entering in my State Fair this summer, all thanks to you! Bobbie🥰

That was a fantastic video. Thank you for your simple and slow instlructions. I’ve never really had a problem putting binding on quilts but I did it a bit differently than you did. I’m going to adopt your method from here forward. ❤

Thank you so much!! I tried following another tutorial that I ended up trying to redo several times with no luck. Yours was simple and straightforward. Thanks again!

Thank you, best video I have for this!!

This is, without a doubt, the best video that I’ve seen for joining ends. Thank you so much for sharing your technique!

I’ve struggled to “get” this method for a year now and your tutorial is the best I’ve found

Nailed it lady, i think i got this perplexing procedure. Your an excellent teacher😊

THANK YOU! No other tutorial I've seen has shown exactly how to open up the two ends so the binding isn't twisted.

You're Awesome! I hadn't done any binding in awhile, so I came back to the video and refreshed my memory. Thnks for all you do to make our sewing lives easier. 😊

Wow, this is simply the best video. I've watched other videos about joining the binding and was more confused after I watched them. Yours is so simple, concise, to the point, and calm. Thank you for this.

Hi Randi, I just came across this video and it was a blessing. I don't have trouble binding quilts, but byAnnie bags are a different beast. Your method is perfect. Thank you. Happy Sewing. ❤❤❤

You’ve made it look so easy, thank you!

This is the best, most clear explanation I have found! Thank you so much!

Your tutorial for joining binding ends is the best one I found on internet. Your camera was perfectly stationed so we could see the exact way we would do these final steps.

Brilliant video!! I am making a By Annie bag for the first time, and I'm not a quilter, so this detailed, very clear explanation is much appreciated!

Thank you. Finally a good teaching on this.

Thank you Randi! That is the BEST binding video out there!!

Thank you. Have tried to do this. I could not but your video helped. I can now di it

Thank you Randi. I can now delete allllll the videos I have saved over the years on joining the ends on my binding. This is exactly what I needed. I will never use another video to help me join my ends.

Thank you so much! I always dread joining binding because I have to rip out several times before I get it right. It worked the first time with your method!

I was pulling my hair out trying to figure out how to join my binding! You made it so simple ! Thank you !!!

Thank you so much. You're brilliant at explaining how to join your bias binding. Thank you. Anita

Excellent way of explaining for the joining the ends. You are good tutor

I like the reference of the mountain top! I see the sewing line as taking the top off the mountain. I can remember that!!

ACROSS the mountain...that fixed my issues with sewing the wrong diagonal! Thank you!

Brilliant explanation of how to not get ends twisted . Thank you for your help

I am the world's worst binder. Right now I am binding Annie's (free pattern) Easy Does it and your hack is marvelous. Thanks to all the By Annie Facebook members who have mentioned this hack!

Thank you. I have been patiently waiting for your video! It makes joining the binding so much easier!

Ah! My binding came out perfect the first time for the first time!! 🎉😂🎉

THANK YOU! This is so helpful. I struggle with the join & have tried many methods & this one makes the most sense.

I learned this method from another video and it’s the best method I’ve seen. I liked your tip about pulling the binding, I usually cut it just a little bit shorter. Thank you 😊

Great demonstration. You make it look easy!

Incredibly technique and so well explained. Thank you.

Thank you!! This is really helpful with such clear and concise instructions and demonstrations of the steps.

thank you for an easy to understand method of binding the ends of bias tape !

This was the easiest binding I’ve ever done it came out perfect thank you

Best binding instructions ever!

Wow this is really helpful to me. I am intimated by bias binding and afraid it's not going to work out. This video put me at ease. I think i can do this. Thank you so much Randi! 👍🙌😘

Thank you for this. I FINALLY get it after watching your video!

Love your technique!You make it look so easy putting the edges together, always had trouble doing that.

Beautiful video! Thank you for taking the time!!

I have been struggling to get this right. Your video explained it to me perfectly. Thank you.

SO HELPFUL!!! This is exactly where I mess up, Thank you!!

Genius! Great visuals and explanation!

This came at the perfect time. Thank you, very easy to understand.

Oh my gosh I wish I’d seen this video along time ago. Thank you thank you

Thanks you so much for your video I always struggle with this when I haven’t done it in a while very easy your the best

OMG This made joining the end so so so much easier !! Thank you Randi 👏

Great video‼️

Thank you so much for the descriptive explanation!❤

This was a very easy way to join the binding ends! Thank you for all your tips!

Thank you so much!! This video got me right out of a jam on my By Annie project. Great video!

Thank you for this video! It helps loads 😊

it worked perfectly!! thank you!

Excellent explanation- thank you very much. Great camera work, too ❤️

Wow. You made it look so simple. Can’t wait to try it. Thank you 😊

This video is very useful. I have found it very helpful. 9:16 You’ve explained it very well. Your mountain reference is extremely helpful too. Thank you very much!

Brilliant! Even though you cut your fabric straight, the bias seam comes out diagonally.

This worked great for me

That was fabulous, thank you so much.. Jean

Thankyou 🙏

This is brilliant….could have done with it last year 😂

Thanks so much for these tips!!!

Thank you friend you really explain this well 😄

Great method, thanks for sharing!

Great video, Randi. I will definitely try it! Thanks.

Thank you. This is a great video

Thank you! I works and made so much sense

Really clear instructions Thankyou 😊

Fabulous!

Thank you! I joined and subscribed!

Love it!

Wonderfull. I loved. Thankyou very much. TX/PR

I love the mountaint comment -- helps me remember the right way to draw the line!

Very helpful, thank you

Congratulations 🎉🎉👏👏👏👏!

thank you that's great tried the annie one but too confusing yours is so easy

Love this!!

Thank you so much. I have struggled with this for years. Do you have any other helpful hints like this up your sleeve.

Thanks, Randi! Ditto what Annebrassell4230 said below. Very well done and detailed! I especially like the rotating of the ends. I always have to double check myself and 50% of the time I'm wrong. I will still double check myself before cutting off the 'mountain tip' but now I plan on having a 99.9% success rate. Thanks!! I've also heard it described as a pair of pants and you want to sew across the waist.

Thanks, so much easier than the other clips I watched 😊

This was really great. I really get confused when I sew the ends together. I really enjoyed your analogies. Can you tell me is it the same if you’re not using bias binding. I usually measure on one side leaving an overlap the same as the width of the binding… which is actually the same measurement as yours you just 1/2ed it. Thanks in advance

I never use bias binding except when I have scalloped edges or rounded corners. On a regular square quilt, placemat, etc. I have never stretched non-bias binding - in fact I go to great lengths to make sure it isn’t stretched! Even in your video you can see that when you attach it back to the quilt, it’s going to pull in the quilt as it goes back to its original shape. You are the only one I have ever seen that purposely stretches the binding so please teach an old dog a new trick and tell us what is the advantage? Thank you.

I’m making the A place for Everything. I am short (20”) the 24” square fabric needed to make the bias binding but I found some extra bias strip from another project. I need to know how long a piece I need in total.

I realize I’m late coming to this video…..but would you please tell me why you stretch the binding? Just curious. Thank you!

I didn't know island batik had these bundles.

Once again this is a great technique. Question, on the Clam binding hack you say that’s the only time you will say to iron bias binding. Do you iron the bias binding for quilts? Thx ❤

I don’t think most people cut their binding on the bias.

Hello Randi! I’m sorry to have to ask you this question on your channel however I couldn’t find you any other way😩 since you are familiar with the Annie patterns and are so talented, I am really stuck on her Travel Essentials 2.0. I posted my problem I’m having today looking for anyone who may be able to help me so far to no avail. If you can find the post from Tami Roberts (me) could you help me in any way? I would be very great full if you could. Im unable to continue with my project until I get further instructions. Thank you Randi❣️
