Beautiful stitching! I really like the tip on stitching down the miter. I don't do a lot of quilting, more bag making but often with quilting cottons, and have been watching videos on binding as some patterns use a lot of binding. I know you see a LOT of machine binding but I personally just feel that both the front and back stitching never really end up that even. Hand work does take more time but I feel your results are basically perfect. Thanks again!
Sherri ~ thank you so much for posting this video. Now I have all of the binding processes in one place. I also enjoy completing my quilt's journey with hand binding, especially if it is being gifted. It's time when I can sit back and enjoy my piecing handiwork and also the wonderful quilting. I do send my quilts out to be quilted ~ but I am happy when they return home to be bound. Journey complete.
I love your videos and this one was very informative. But I wish you would show closer close-ups. Especially when you are demonstrating such detailed work.
I was thinking that as well. And also. How to stop and start new thread or join it? She his the first know. What do you do when you run out of thread? I'm brand new to sewing and quilting. I'm almost clueless. LOL
Stitching the place where your binding meets to miter is a great idea. I agree, it gives it a very glad and nice finished look. I’m going to try it. Tfs. 👏🏻💕👏🏻
I really liked your technique on the corner. I have always wrestled with getting that sucker neat and sharp. I do believe this will be my go to solution to slay that corner dragon!😅😅
Absolutely enjoyed your instructive video. Much needed, especially for the mitered corners. Thank you for affirming some of my own untaught binding sewing.
Thanks so much Sherri. Great tutorial! I've been enjoying your videos (and recently, Podcasts!) I've been machine binding mine, but have been wanting to learn this to put a special touch on my quilts. Plus, I'm ready to get away from the machine and get comfy on the sofa and hand stitch. 😀 thanks!!
Thanks so much for showing this Sherri!! Especially the way you stitch the mitered corners. I had my way of doing it but yours appears neater to me!! I appreciate all you do to help us improve our skills. :)
Thank you for the tutorial......I usually just sew mine down because I am worried my hand stitching won’t hold up to the washing! I couldn’t see real well...but it looked like you were taking 2 bites of the fabric before bringing the needle up.....is that right?
How do you keep the stitches from coming loose as you're stitching? Whenever I'm doing this, my recent stitches come loose, and I have to keep pulling. Any chance you could get a real close closeup of the actual stitches? Thanks for your tutorial! As I watched the miter, I thought, "Wow... why couldn't I think of that!" Guess what I'll be doing... LOL
You take a small stitch through the quilt but when you move to the next stitch do you hide the thread in the quilt sandwich, in the binding fold, or between the quilt top and binding fabric? That was difficult to see for sure.
Thank you for showing this. Is there any way Billy can zoom in closer? It was hard to see. I just completed my first hand stitched binding. Needs help, but I have to start somewhere. I went around twice as I am afraid it will come out in the wash? How often do you wash tablerunners / potholds or quilts that you finish by hand? Thank you
So, what do you do when you get to the end of the thread? How do you join more thread? And are you going all the way through the quilt? It was hard to see what you were doing and to see the stitches from th3 camera angle.
I think it’s a great idea how you went under the miter and came up to the top and then stitched out back to the bottom good tip thank you so much for sharing❣️🧵✂️❤️💗
I am curious why the stitches need to show at all. I usually put a stitch in the backing, and then right above I slide the needle into the binding and then back out about a quarter inch away. All of the stitches are then hidden either inside the binding or inside the backing. I have only seen people teach your way though, so I am wondering if there is a reason that I am missing. Also, your corner method does not secure the front of the miter. I just continue as usual up the miter, hiding the stitches as I go (only they are tiny - much smaller than a quarter inch). Then when you get to the corner, stab all the way through to the front of quilt right on the top edge of the miter. Then work your way down the front of the miter until you get to the inner corner of the binding. Stab your needle all the way through the quilt and out the back at the inner corner, then continue sewing as usual down the next side. All the stitches are hidden and your miters are secured on both sides.
Thanks so much for this great video it was very informative. I am new to quilting and your video was easy to follow. I am now trying to find a video on how to tie off thread when thread gets low using a needle. Maybe you could comment on this and direct me to a video. Joyce Boucher
Video was informative but you were going a bit fast n needed to be a closer up view. It looked like you were taking 2 stitches at once. I was a little confused about that.
I have the attention span of a peanut so by @4:30 or so.... I have to move on or need to put in fast forward mode. Lol! I hope I didn't offend. It's absolutely nothing to do with your video, and all to do with my yucko attention span. Subscribed though because I can't wait to see more of your quilting videos because I'm a noob. 😊😉❤️
This was the most clear and easiest to follow hand binding tutorial that I have seen to date. Thank you.
Thank you for showing hand binding Sherri. Glad you explained how to stitch the mitered corner. See you next time.
Beautiful stitching! I really like the tip on stitching down the miter.

I cannot believe that you are stitching WITHOUT a thimble. I enjoy your tutorials.

I love your tip of using a binding bag! I enjoy hand sewing the binding to the back also.
I love your videos and this one was very informative. But I wish you would show closer close-ups. Especially when you are demonstrating such detailed work.
I was thinking that as well. And also. How to stop and start new thread or join it? She his the first know. What do you do when you run out of thread? I'm brand new to sewing and quilting. I'm almost clueless. LOL
I felt the same so I watched on my phone and zoomed the picture in so I could see up close
@@tinavincent1678same clueless and new to this.
Love this video! I am getting ready to sew my third quilt binding on and I wish I had seen this for my two granddaughters quilts I made Christmas.
I sew my mitres now thanks to this video!
I use your tip about ironing back the binding. Now I will use this new tip on the miter corner. Thank you.
Stitching the place where your binding meets to miter is a great idea. I agree, it gives it a very glad and nice finished look. I’m going to try it. Tfs. 👏🏻💕👏🏻
Thank you for this video. I’ve never used this stitch style before.
This gives such a lovely finish! Thanks!
I really liked your technique on the corner. I have always wrestled with getting that sucker neat and sharp. I do believe this will be my go to solution to slay that corner dragon!😅😅
I have never hand stitched a binding and I want to! Thank you
I always stitch my corner miter as well. I think it looks neater. And pressing the binding back from the quilt top makes such a difference.
Thank you for this tutorial. I really needed a refresher on hand stitching the binding; this was an excellent source.
This gave some real help for me! I was having trouble with the sewing miters and your trick looks great! Thank you!
I love how you finished the mitered corners. Thank you!
I love to hand stitch the binding. It is such a meditative stitch. My sister feels the same.
Absolutely enjoyed your instructive video. Much needed, especially for the mitered corners. Thank you for affirming some of my own untaught binding sewing.

Very helpful. Especially doing the corners!
Thanks! That’s a lovely little wall hanging.💕
I will change the way I do the corners. I always take a stitch half way up into the miter, but your way is much better.
Excellent tutorial. Thank you.
Thank you for the tutorial......I usually just sew mine down because I am worried my hand stitching won’t hold up to the washing! I couldn’t see real well...but it looked like you were taking 2 bites of the fabric before bringing the needle up.....is that right?
Ooooooa"binding bag" I like that idea!
Thank you for this tutorial. It helped a ton 😊
It looks like you take two stitches on the backing before you come up for a stitch in the binding. Am I seeing that wrong? Thank you!
I see that too and would like to know....
Thank you for such an informative video❤ How do you end the stitching?😊
Thank you Sherrie for showing us how to. I need to watch on my pc so I can really see the stitch better, on my phone lol not so easy to see
How do you keep the stitches from coming loose as you're stitching? Whenever I'm doing this, my recent stitches come loose, and I have to keep pulling. Any chance you could get a real close closeup of the actual stitches? Thanks for your tutorial! As I watched the miter, I thought, "Wow... why couldn't I think of that!" Guess what I'll be doing... LOL
Would it be stronger binding if I used a knotted 2 threaded needle? Do you wax your thread?
You take a small stitch through the quilt but when you move to the next stitch do you hide the thread in the quilt sandwich, in the binding fold, or between the quilt top and binding fabric? That was difficult to see for sure.
Very good look. Thank you.
single thread or double?
I love the bag you put the clips in. Do you have a pattern I can purchase?
I'm a newbie & stitch haven't figured out how to do the actual "stitch". Please demonstrate in a closeup. Thx
Great ideas! Thank you!
Thank you for showing this. Is there any way Billy can zoom in closer? It was hard to see. I just completed my first hand stitched binding. Needs help, but I have to start somewhere. I went around twice as I am afraid it will come out in the wash? How often do you wash tablerunners / potholds or quilts that you finish by hand? Thank you
Do you have the tutorial for the bag. It is so cute.
So, what do you do when you get to the end of the thread? How do you join more thread? And are you going all the way through the quilt? It was hard to see what you were doing and to see the stitches from th3 camera angle.
Do you only secure the miter on the back? You don’t do the front as well?
I think it’s a great idea how you went under the miter and came up to the top and then stitched out back to the bottom good tip thank you so much for sharing❣️🧵✂️❤️💗
The corner tip is really helpful and good to know. Which kind of needle do you use please? Thank tou
She said she used Primitive Gatherings Binding Needles.
Thanks 🙏
What is the color of thread that you used? Thank you!
When you come to the end of your thread, how do you knot and tie off?
I am curious why the stitches need to show at all. I usually put a stitch in the backing, and then right above I slide the needle into the binding and then back out about a quarter inch away. All of the stitches are then hidden either inside the binding or inside the backing. I have only seen people teach your way though, so I am wondering if there is a reason that I am missing.

Then work your way down the front of the miter until you get to the inner corner of the binding. Stab your needle all the way through the quilt and out the back at the inner corner, then continue sewing as usual down the next side. All the stitches are hidden and your miters are secured on both sides.
That's such a cute pattern for the blocks. Do you have a link for the pattern?
Thx for showing how you stitch the mitered corner. I wish you had shown else how you do your last binding stitches so the knot doesn't show.
Do you ever put a knot while you’re binding besides the beginning and the end?
What type of needle is best for hand binding?
This is how I do my bindings and miters. I just made it up and didn’t know if I was doing it “right,”. Lol.
Thanks so much for this great video it was very informative. I am new to quilting and your video was easy to follow. I am now trying to find a video on how to tie off thread when thread gets low using a needle. Maybe

I wish there was a close up of your stitching. I can’t see it well.

View should be from your side facing the quilt. Sorry, just can not see what your doing🤷♀️
Not close enough to see what she's doing
I’m sorry I can’t see what she’s doing.
Too far away
Terrible video / did not demonstrate the stitching very well at all.
