A very good video. I have a Janome binding foot and have never used it. I already machine bind my quilts by attaching the binding to the back of the quilt pulling it to the front and stitching it down on the front with a decorative stitch. Someone commented you talk a lot..you do..but that’s what we are here for..to listen to you talk about this product. What I appreciate is your confidence in speaking and not giving us a lot of umms and ahhs. Well done, thank you.
Hello thanks Sarah! Very pleased to have this new video. Just one 'however' - we were showed this by Jamie Warren last year at Coles when the product was introduced, and a couple of times since. He did say, you don't need bias strips unless you are working round curves. He also used strips that weren't on the bias.
I have had this binder for my Janome for a couple years. Your demo on the mitered corner is so much easier and your hands were not blocking the view. I love this binder and it makes the dreaded binding so easy and fast and flawless. Happy quilting.
We are trying to figure out what presser foot you are using. We have a ton of presser feet but we don't know which one you're using here. Do we need it to get the best results? After spending so much on this attachment I would hate to have to spend a bunch more money on another presser foot! This foot wasn't included with our attachment.
excellent tute! i dont have this machine but i have some binder feet that i could never get to work. when you showed the tech for pressing the seam ripper down in front of the foot, i realized that that was where the problem was🤗. also, the glue stick is also a good idea for getting all the corners neat (i usually get 3 of 4 good and one that just wont behave). thanks for the tips. i came to see what a binder was and glad i stayed for the tute!🙃
I have purchased this attachment but have not yet tried using it. Hope to do so real soon though. Thanks for the video as it has been a helpful introduction.
Thanks for the video. I just bought my first Viking machine and the binder foot since I hate doing bindings. I can't wait to try this out. Is it possible to using the tool when making a potholder and end by making a loop?
@@HeirloomCreations Thanks. I figured out how I can make a loop. Now I just have to figure out how I can do corners and catch all the fabric. Not doing too good in that area.
How wide do you cut the binding strips? Abs what is the finished size? I have 3 of the attachments ordered. The 32mm has arrived. That’s 1 1/4. Is that the width I cut the fabric or the folded binding width?
The video was exceptional especially the part about the corners. Definitely need more practice on the corners! I guess I went a little too fast and missed the binding on the other side with stitching, I will go slower next time. I like the tool because your video.
Was this one easier than the bias binder foot? Do they both leave just a single piece of fabric for the outside edge? Not like when we take a 2 1/4" fold in half, to get 2 layers of fabric for the regular way to bind a quilt. Wow! That is hard to explain. Haha! I hope you understand what I was meaning.
I have a question about the presser feet of the singer machines or in your case the generic pressers can be adapted to the husquevarna 116 smeralda machine? is that the singer 3333 has the same type of Stilt foot than the husquevarna 116. Is that possible or is there a difference?! Greetings and thanks for your videos
Just got my binder yesterday. I have watched a few videos about this, but had not heard anyone mention that the strips had to be on the bias. Personally, in the past, I have preferred to cut my binding strips on the straight grain. Have found it works well for me, and on all the quilts I have done it has never been an issue. I have manually turned the corners in the same manner. Can I still cut my strips on the straight rather than on the bias?
The quilt binders really do best with the extra "give" that bias strips offer. Trust me, once you start using bias strips for all your bindings, you will never go back to straight of grain binding. ;) Sara
Seems I am asking a lot of Questions! LOL . I am having a difficult time seating the quilt sandwich into the bias behind the foot. Eventually i get going but not happy with what I see behind the foot. Also, even though I have adjusted the needle position so that it is about 3/16" in from the edge of my binding it is not catching the underside. What am I doing wrong? Thanks.
Wish I could but all our local dealers are no longer in business. It was quite a hike to even get the attachment. But, thanks for your video and I will keep working at it. LOL
I like this video of the attachment better than the other video o the attachment. What is the foot that comes with it? Mine doesn't have the bar across to even put it on my machine. u E your video.
The foot that comes with the binder is for the dual feed foot that takes the interchangeable feet. She’s using a piping foot in her demo. She said she felt it works better for her.
Hello, I have been unable to find where to purchase the MEGA BINDING FOOT FOR MY EPIC 1. I have contacted my local store, but no one has been able to direct me to the MEGA BINDING FOOT. Any help would be appreciated. I enjoy watching your videos!!
I have a Ruby Royale and I was wondering if I have to use the interchangeable walking foot or if they just want you to buy it because it's like $180... It's nice to see that I don't have to use it... One less thing I have to invest in, lol
Thank you Sara, for another great video. Do you know if this will work with the Jade 20 Husqvarna Viking? Thank you in advance for your time. Love your videos!
Hello, thank you for the excellent video. You mentioned the walking foot at the beginning of the video, but then used a different foot (the megs piping foot?). Why would you not use the walking foot?
Since the author is not replying, she stated in the video that she likes the visuals with the mega piping foot better. She felt that the walking foot was hard to see around and maneuver her fabric. I can see after watching the video why you would need a slender foot that you can both see all around and be able to get in there and really move your fabric. Other than being able to see more, there was no reason why you can't use the walking foot, it was just her preference to use the mega piping foot as it works well and she felt she could see more and control more.
Saved my money and got my sapphire 965q from my local dealer. No twin holes in the plates. Been watching your 960q series. Very informative, and enjoyable to watch. What machine is that you are using?
Great video. I wish these manufacturer's would realize that a binding under 2" is not a good measurement for an actual bed quilt! Ugh...ridiculous. 2-2 1/2" is the standard...they should make their devices accordingly.
That's what we are thinking too. With the 2 1/2" you have two layers of fabric. I'm afraid after they're laundered a few times the fabric is going to wear through and we will have to turn around and rebind the quilts that the little kids are using.
Good video and I just finished watching your other one with the smaller binding foot options. After watching all of these I really don't care for the size, like another commenter said, when will these engineers actually ask quilters what size these binders should be made for and second, I really don't like the finish at all. I think I will stick to a more traditional approach and use what you posted in your video from a few years ago about having the binding with what I would call a flange that allows you to stitch in the ditch on the top. Much more professional in looks. I suppose even with this you could always stop and finish the tails in a traditional method for a better finish but I still don't like the size for any bindings. 2 1/2" is the standard for a reason. ;)
The 7" distance relates to the location of the needle to the place you want the binding to officially end. Then cut where we show you. Thanks for asking.
Why aren’t these companies hiring you to demo their products? I feel these companies should be proactive and demo their products. It feels as though, they just stuff feet in a box and you are supposed to figure it out
I've also viewed "Explore the Quilt Binder" with Mickey Hudson. She was doing it live so there are some extraneous comments but I found it to be very helpful. And she is a Viking educator since that seemed important to you.
@@victoriachism4741 , I agree. The high pitch intonations in the voice became really irritating. I think its just a regional accent that is like fingernails on a chalkboard.

Love this video, I was intimidated by the quilt binder and now I'm not afraid to use it.
Thanks to your video I got it to work the very first time!

It's easier than I thought it would be. Thank you.

Thank you! Just got this attachment and practicing- extremely helpful.
I have a Janome 8900
Thank you! Your videos are always so helpful.
would have liked the demonstration to be done with the foot that came with the binder. I don't have the mega piping foot.

Would you have a video on using the 8 thread spool holder on the epic 2. Thank you
Can you use 1 ½” strip for a skinnier binding in this binder?
I have purchased this attachment but have not yet tried using it. Hope to do so real soon though. Thanks for the video as it has been a helpful introduction.
I've been practicing with this. I'll practice a bit more, and if I don't get any better, I'll go back to the old way and sell the attachment!
Thanks for the video. I just bought my first Viking machine and the binder foot since I hate doing bindings. I can't wait to try this out. Is it possible to using the tool when making a potholder and end by making a loop?
You are welcome...yes, this will work wonderfully on potholders and end with a loop. Give yourself grace as you practice. ;)
@@HeirloomCreations Thanks. I figured out how I can make a loop. Now I just have to figure out how I can do corners and catch all the fabric. Not doing too good in that area.
Thanks, Sarah, the vidéo was useful and I was able to have success the first time.
Thank youuuuuuuu!!!! I loved your video!!! I am so excited!!! You are great!!!!! God bless you!!!
A link to the device would be nice
Can you go around curved or rounded corners? When I tried it it did catch both front and back
Where can I purchase this attachment for my Designer Diamond? I do not have a Husqvarna Viking locally.
How wide do you cut the binding strips? Abs what is the finished size? I have 3 of the attachments ordered. The 32mm has arrived. That’s 1 1/4. Is that the width I cut the fabric or the folded binding width?
Margaret , I have not been able to find the MEGA PIPING FOOT to use with the quilt binder. Where can I find this foot?
I picked one up today at the Husqvarna Viking store, but if you do a search you can find it at different web sites.
The video was exceptional especially the part about the corners. Definitely need more practice on the corners! I guess I went a little too fast and missed the binding on the other side with stitching, I will go slower next time. I like the tool because your video.

Can this be used for the Husqvarna Diamond Design?
CAN THIS BE USED on a Viking Emerald 118?
Does this work with Topaz 50?
Yes, you just need to purchase a new throat plate with the holes in it for the Quilt Binder to attach to
Will Husqvarna Viking be releasing a standard quilt Binder of 2 1/2" yet? Can you please let me know? Standard Quilts are that size. Thankyou

What stitch length did you use?
Has anyone ever used flannel binding with the attachment?

Maybe have your local Viking store help you perfect your technique.

I can’t seem to find where to purchase this accessory.
Your local Husqvarna Viking retailer has these Quilt Binders.
where can i get one of these and/or what is the product number?

Sorry, the Husqvarna Viking Quilt Binder does not work on the Jade series of machines.

A close up of all that would really be helpful

That is the Designer Epic. Embroidery/Sewing. The Epic 980Q is without embroidery.
🙏, will save a so I could be able to use. Thanks 🤩
Great video. I wish these manufacturer's would realize that a binding under 2" is not a good measurement for an actual bed quilt! Ugh...ridiculous. 2-2 1/2" is the standard...they should make their devices accordingly.
Will a 2.5” standards width binding tool be introduced? It would be nice as an add on for the already purchased binding tool.
That's what we are thinking too. With the 2 1/2" you have two layers of fabric. I'm afraid after they're laundered a few times the fabric is going to wear through and we will have to turn around and rebind the quilts that the little kids are using.

Makes an excellent binding. Ask your dealer to demo.
You mention the Easy Press. But, I didn't catch if you had actually sprayed your fabric before you cut it into strips or after.
Yes, we sprayed the fabric before cutting.
When you say leave 7” is that on the remaining binding or from the needle to where you started the binding..
The 7" distance relates to the location of the needle to the place you want the binding to officially end. Then cut where we show you. Thanks for asking.
Thank you
You're welcome
Where can I purchase this accessory?
Your local Husqvarna Viking retailer has these Quilt Binders.
I think I'll continue the old way.
I was left with the same impression...
I didn't like the way she ended the binding, just folding over the end and going over the starting end. Doesn't look very nice.
Agreed. I think to end it, switch out of the binder near the end join, and end some other way.

I’d rather use the binding tool and take the time to do it better and not have the overlap
OMG She talks toooo much!!!! Just star the demo!!!
Excellent tutorial but the high pitched constant enthusiasm got annoying.
I love the enthusiasm myself.
