S T
Starting just behind the folded start of the binding, sew 1⁄2” from
the edge of the quilt until you reach the first corner.
Once you are 1⁄2” from the first corner, sew at a 45 degree angle,
then remove the quilt from the machine.
U V
Fold the binding strip taut against the 45 degree stitch. Create a right angle by folding the binding strip back on itself and
pin in place.
W X
Begin sewing 1⁄2” from the edge again. Repeat steps T through W
until you make your way around the entirety of the quilt. Trim any
excess binding once you reach the end.
Use an iron to press the binding over the edge of the quilt.
