      I have watched this so many times and have used it perfectly once, but I hadn’t quilted in a long bit. I got bored and made a bunch of bags or purses. So, I got back in the mood watching yours and other quilting videos. I’m a lazy quilter, so it took me a couple weeks to make a simple trip around the world lap quilt. Lazy. Lol. I just get bored really fast. So, I’ve finished it and put the binding on. I thought I remembered your method. Well it turned out all twisty. So had to use Jack the Ripper…lol. I tried this 3 times. Still twisted. So I watched your video again. Three times to be sure and while I was doing it. It worked first try. So, thank you again. I had to walk away a couple times. The quilt was in danger of becoming the dogs blanket. You saved my quilt. 🫶🏻

    Great to see that old technique demonstrated so clearly. It can be very hard to follow and understand when it’s poorly demonstrated. And for anyone who wonders why do they want to use this method - it makes a very smooth join because the bulk of the folded fabric is spread over wider area instead of all being bulked in the same place if you just stitched them directly across

    I’ve been doing my binding like this for years! Works great every time. I do pin however but not where I’m sewing.
    I also sew the binding to the back, press the seam on top flat with back so it’s going towards the turn towards the front, then using clips clip the binding to the front. I machine stitch along the edge on the front. I do get a line of stitches on the back so I use bobbin thread that matches my backing. My quilts are made for use for family and friends not competition so I’m happy with this method. I have arthritis in my hands a bit so this works well.
