    I like to cut a whole bunch of binding all at once, sew it all, press it all, wind it all, and do many different colors. Just pick one day to do a bunch of color themes and get them all ready for when you have finished projects, you have binding ready and waiting for you.

    Nat, thanks so much for the tutorial. I have made bias binding in the past but your directions really take the stress out of cutting on the bias. Also, a huge shoutout to Liz! Your calm voice and comments add so much to all the videos you are a part of! You are a great addition to the Missouri team!

    I love Natalie's tutorials! The binding ones especially have changed the finished look of my quilts so so much! And that trimming 1/8" at the end and sewing the pieces together was a game changer for me. I can't thank you enough, especially as someone who started quilting May 2020! (I haven't stopped since hee hee). BTW Natalie, I watched a tutorial you did in 2010 (!) for the Summer in the Park quilt--I'll post mine on Instagram soon--that was super, too. You're a natural teacher.

    Thank you so much for your tutorials! I was excited to find this one because I had been wondering why I couldn’t just use bias binding for any quilt so this answers that question for me. I want to make my own up just to have it I think. For not just quilts but I’d like to try making aprons as well. I’m new to sewing. But have been watching many sewing videos over the past year. Hopefully I’ll know enough to not fear sewing anymore! Lol ~ TC

    Thanks Natalie. I have avoided doing any binding that wasn't straight. You have shown us so well in your demonstration that I feel like I can actually do this, with a bit of practice. And I'm happy that these videos stay up for a good while. It was done a year ago and I'm fairly new to sewing, so once again, thanks!

      That is how I cut mine. I used Fons and Porters basic information book. I have had it for 26 years. A friend recommended this book for me as a beginner quilter. Bias binding is supposed to wear better in the long haul than straight binding. I only make straight when I do a wall hanging. Everything else is bias.

  • @beckymurray-nicholls8622
    @beckymurray-nicholls8622 3 роки тому

    Another great tutorial. I'm a real scrooge so I use the smaller triangle up first (especially if I only need a small length of bias binding) and then cut into the middle chunk if I need to so that I keep the largest area of whole fabric I can to use for other projects. :) If the fabric is solid or the pattern on it doesn't mind being in different directions, and you don't mind your joining seams being in different directions, for the strips where the ends go in opposite directions, I don't trim them, I just turn every second one around when I join them, and save the waste - I do trim off the selvage edge.

    Nicely done, Natalie. I love your voice. I actually cut straight-grain strips as usual for a large quilt, and just put the bias strips on the corners. And the free app, QuiltCalc, from Robert Kaufman fabrics indicates the yardage for bias and for straight binding are pretty much the same.
