Love the way you demo what you do twice. I’m a huge stripe binding fan!

[@sharonslater3525]

I love your technique!! Just made some stripped bias binding.

[@lindamacdonald5802]

Thank you so much for explaining this to me. ❤ I watched another video and felt anxious about it. You made it crystal clear. Can't wait to try it.🤗

I love learning new information ~ it’s amazing how much yardage the stripes binding on the bias made from a fat quarter‼️. That barber pole or candy cane effect is a favorite on binding. Thank you for demonstrating that.👍

[@donnapieretti4430]

Just found this! I think this is what I need! Biased challenged! Glad it can be done with any size fabric. I was going to try a half yard. Love the flowers!

I'm new to your sight today. Thank you for explaining what I once knew. I'll be back to visit. 👏🏼👏🏼😊

[@kathyjohunt760]

That’s amazing! I’m one of those that was intimidated to cut on the bias. I love the look of diagonal stripe binding. Thanks so much for sharing. Stripe binding quilts is in my near future 😊👍

[@martharobinson9059]

Thank you for explaining this clearly.

[@debanderson1075]

Love this method -- thank you for sharing this.

[@loiscornell898]

Would you ever cut stripes on the bias @21/2inches for a quilt strip but not on the bindiing specifically?

[@sandybailey654]

Thank you awsume

[@beckymccubbins5845]

If the stripes are different colors will those colored stripes match up when stitched? Nice demo!

[@destes151]

This is awesome! Thank you.

[@MyGirlfriendsQuiltShoppe]

You're very welcome!

[@debihinkle6100]

never thought to use stripes this way ( avoided em like the plague). how to do using min 2.5 yds of bolt? Have several gifted stripes that could make cool bindings but didn't understand what you meant by " unfold it"

[@jenniferschenker5669]

What do you do with a full length of material and not a fat quarter? do you unfold the whole length?

[@MyGirlfriendsQuiltShoppe]

Yes, unfold it. Hope that helps!

[@hideekatt]

Thanks thats cool

[@barbarablackmon-gussak9161]

It would have been more helpful to show how you stitch the strips together!!

[@juliemoss6175]

Press before cutting?

[@lingeldmyer9531]

Does the club have a printable sheet for this?

[@marilyntignanelli2112]

what's a fat quarter, please?
