Your quilt or scene should now look something like this. Remove the design from the sewing machine and fold the
binding strip back against the 45° line you stitched onto the
corner’s seam allowance.
Then, fold the binding strip back onto itself once more,
aligning the edge of the binding with the raw edge of the
quilt’s seam allowance. Pin or clip in place and continue
stitching at a 1⁄2” seam allowance.
Fold the binding over the raw edges of the quilt to the back
of the quilt.
Repeat steps G - I to attach the binding strip to the remaining
corners. To join the beginning and end of the binding, simply
overlap the end with the starting triangle by about 2”. This
edge will finish itself once you wrap the binding back.
Using an iron, pull your binding taut and press the edge.
