Hi Kim. Great tutorial. This is a good project to practice free motion quilting. Also, great gift option. You are a wonderful teacher.
Thanks so much, Kate. I'm glad you enjoyed the video.
A good lesson. Thank you for all the helpful tips!
I did your method on a facing instead of binding on a quilt, that’s the best ,my question is it. Possible to do that method on pot holders? Thank you.🇨🇦
I've watched alot of mitered corner videos yours was just the easiest and you showed in in fabric thst could been seen as to what to do thankyou. This will be my first attempt.
Glad it was helpful!
I tried this with a 50 X 60 blanket for a nephew - and Voila! It worked great! Thank you! I am going to try to make a table runner with the same technique. Thank you for such clear instruction!
I love that you didn’t edit out the bit when you pinned the wrong corners together, such a human moment, it’s nice to know I’m not the only one who makes these little mistakes :D excellent video, thank you so much for sharing, it has changed the way I do so many little projects xx
In the past year I've made several, and I love your technique, however, I cut my back a little big and quilt through all the layers. Then I trim the back using a 3" ruler all around. It's easier than trying to center the front on the back. Also I found that if I do the step where the edge of the back is folded to the edge of the front before cutting the miter, it eliminates the gap inside the border. I do make them from yardage because the fat quarter ones seem too small for me. I have also used this same method on a baby quilt. Love it!! Thanks for the exceptionally clear tutorial.
Thanks for watching and for giving details on how you do this - very helpful!
Hi Kim. Thank you for your tutorial. i did my first placemat in my life 🙂. I had got my first sawing machine few days ago and I am pleased with my work. I wish it would be in more details in some places but I know you have more subscribes which are not beginners. Thank you and looking forward for more crafting 🙂. Now I want sew my mat with frills ;-P
I have made two of these, a little larger to use as a sewing machine pad for my friend and me. Love it. Very detailed, easy to follow tutorial. Thank you!
Wonderful!
Thank you, Kim! I’ve never quite mastered the perfect looking mitred corner until I found this video. Your explanations were clear and quite easy to follow. I’m happy to have learned a new skill and even happier that I’ll finally have Christmas placemats, for our table, that we actually like😂
I just made a small table runner using this pattern and instructions. It came out beautiful and I was able to adjust it easily for the size od my table. Thank you!
Wonderful!
Thank you for this great project. I made one right away so I wouldn't forget your instructions. The one thing I did differently was attach the top and batting to the backing before quilting so the quilting is visible on the back: now I have a reversible placemat!
Hello Jeanette. Can you please tell me how you finish your quilting lines? Do you stop where the top and batting ends? Or do you quilt till the very edge of the backing fabric?
Thank you for the tutorial.
To make centering the top easier, place the ruler on the backing with the 3" line at the edge, then butt the top up against the edge of the ruler. You could even have a 2nd ruler placed on the side in the same manner.
Excellent teacher! Thank you for making it look so easy. I am about to cut my fabric to start a Christmas set for my son and daughter-in-law. I will be watch this tutorial as I go along. Many thanks 💕💐💕
You are so welcome!
love this tutorial i am a beginner and made these it was so easy your a good tutor i enjoy
Thanks so much, Kate, for your kind comment. I'm glad you were able to make it easily.
I love these. I will definitely be making these, but instead of batting, I will use iron on fleece. Thank You for sharing Your Time, and Talent with all of us.
I love that purple thang, it is so useful in so many ways.
You are so welcome!
I watched this yesterday and just finishing a dozen for the Xmas table today! So easy, a wonderful tutorial - timeless! 🥰
Exactly the tutorial I needed for the math portion of this!
So easy and explanatory this is exactly what I needed
Glad it was helpful for you!
Really like this easier method. Thanks for this clever solution.
Kim, I am a beginner, and feel as though I would be able to make a set of these. You explained every step in detail. Thank you for sharing!
You are so welcome!
Thank you for this really clear tutorial. I’ll give it a try!
I made a beautiful set of placemats following your directions. Mine were larger as I measured for a full place setting and use yardage. I plan on making some holiday mats. I have decided to use an iron on stabilizer on the backing to make it stiffer. Thanks so much, mine came out beautiful.
Sounds great!
Great video! I’ve made placemats from this now in several sizes, both rectangle and square. Works so well, such a beautiful finish. Thank you!
Wonderful!
I like that! Thank you. Definitely going to use this idea for gifts.
You are so welcome!
I’m always looking for different ways to bind. Great video
Just came across this tutorial. Thank you for this wonderful tutorial.
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you for making this useful video! I really appreciate that there is a much simpler way to give a finished look to small quilt projects without binding!!
I love it, keep doing. HOD BLESS YOU
Have just finished making this placemat from this tutorial. Thank you Kim for such a great and easy technique. My new favorite way to do so much more different placemats.
Thank you for this tutorial!! I am making these for Christmas gifts!!
Great tutorial! I can do it! I am so tire of putting binding on my placemats! I think I can make pot holders with the same method, too! Thank you, thank you!
Neat way to do a placemat. Thanks Kim.
Many thanks for this. Great technique beautifully explained. All l need now is the courage - and the ability to cut straight!
Very nice demonstration thank you
You are welcome
This is great, thanks for the info. I am going to go through my fabric stash and make some up. I have yards for fabric to play with. Gift idea for next year. I have also wanted to get some Holliday fabric on sale and was planing on making some Placemats and Napkins.
Easy to follow! I’m going to try these
Have fun!
That was a pleasure to watch! What a great teacher you are! I will definitely make a set of these. Thank you
Thank you so much!
That was an excellent video! Best video I’ve seen on mitered corners for placemats!
Glad it was helpful!
Awesome job 🥰
Wow, what a great idea! Thank you.
You are so welcome!
Great tutorial and thank you!❤❤

You are so welcome!
Thanks a lot for sharing the very neat and easy technique Kim. Result turn out so beautiful.This method will be very good for baby quilt.

Thanks for a well demonstrated tutorial. I was looking for one which gives an idea how much fabric we need for the backing. Now I can do the calculation for any small or big item I’ll be making. I’m new to sewing and it was easy to follow. Thanks a lot.
So easy I love this
Hi Kim, thank you for sharing.
Thank You for this. Cannot wait to get started making these as nice gifts
Hi, I like this, will try. Lovely ❤️
I like the mitered corner for this simple binding!
Yes, it works quite well. Thanks for watching.
You explained very well and this is one of my favorite tutorials, thank you so much! 💚💜
Making some for my sister in law as birthday gift.
I was hoping that you could give a tutorial on fabric napkins as well, please do it if it’s possible. Thank you Madam! ☺️😍😍
I'm glad you enjoyed the video. Yes, they make quick gifts! Thanks for the suggestion for a future video on fabric napkins.
Thank you. I love your way

You're welcome!
SLICK! Thanks 😊
Great video! Thank you for sharing :D
This is great. Thanks for the clear instructions.
T d jakes
so much easier than the other videos!
Glad you think so!
Great tutorial! The result is really nice. The metered corners look wonderful! Is there a reason why you did not quilt the three layers together, then go on to the binding? Does the quilting change the size or shape? Was just thinking if you could quilt the entire thing, it could be reversible. Thanks so much for all your tutorials. Just looked at the one you did on the Janome 500E. I am starting to look into embroidery only machines, and you made this one look very appealing.
Thanks, Linda. Not sure why I didn't think of this and can't really see why quilting the 3 layers first would be a problem. I think it just might be easier to centre the quilted sandwich in the centre as you need to be sure that it is right in the centre for the binding to be even on all sides.
That’s a great design! Something new to try :-)
Glad you like it!
I love this technique thanks for sharing.
Great video!!
Glad you enjoyed it
Thank you thank you 😊! I am so glad I subscribed to your channel!!!
I'm glad you did too!
Can't wait to try this! Thanks for the great idea!
Great tutorial - you had me worried for a bit when you cut the corners off. LOL Just found you as a result of looking for the Janome 9400 Upgrade Kit. Great project! Thanks!
You're welcome, Marge. I know - I get nervous when I cut corners off too!
Can you do the same for a potholder with the binding trim when sewing the corners?
Yes, you should be able to do this for any size project.
What a fun project !!! I just HAVE to try it. Wondered one thing. What stitch length did you use for those corners? Did you go smaller? Thank you for a great video :)
Hi Terry: I don't think I changed the stitch length as I got to the corners - I just slow down and stitch carefully ;)
Your so great. thanks!!!
Fancy 😍
Fold. top and bottom in four and use lines to line up .evenly
Would that work to make matching napkins without the batting and quilting?
I think you might still need to do some stitching to hold the back and front of the napkins together. Otherwise, I think it would work without the batting. May have to try this...
has anyone made these place mats? what did you mat size come out to?
What kind of sewing machine do you have and has it been easy to use/learn and do you still love it? I'm on a machine hunt right now.
I use various Janome sewing machines - currently the CM17, a combination embroidery and sewing machine. Depends on the type of machine you need, price point, etc. Check with your local sewing machine dealers, try out different machines, - that's the best way to make your choice.
The backing fabric, is it right side facing or are we looking at the wrong side. I think wrong side not sure
Yes, the wrong side is up. I mention this at th-cam.com/video/Bfv1_vbrJB4/w-d-xo.html.
Hi wonder what is the white fabric size please thanks cuz am deaf so need open captioned on this.
Hi Dawn: You can find out the size I used as well as information on how to make different sizes by checking out the blogpost for this video at www.chatterboxquilts.com/blog/placemats?rq=no%20binding. Let me know if you need any further help and thanks for watching.
I did all the steps and cannot fold it under the way you did. 😭😭😭 The only difference is I left 2" around the circumference of the backing. I'm frustrated at this point. 🙄
Good afternoon Kim with this method can I create a twin size quilt using fat quarters or on piece of fabric such as 2 yards ?
Hi Melinda: I suppose you could - you'll just have to be sure that the backing fabric is large enough and that you make sure that the borders are big enough to look proportional.
Why would you not quilt the top and batting to the backing ???
I've found it easier to do it the way I show in the video.
At least you didn’t say “tall” !
brilliant tutorial...the end result is great.

Seems more difficult to me then self binding. Also too much math 😂
