TIP 3: Handling corners
Stop sewing at a ¼” from the actual
corner, leaving the needle down in the
table runner.
Rotate the table runner to sew out to the
corner edge.
Take the loose end of your binding and
fold away from the table runner, using
the seam you just made sewing to the
edge of the corner.
Take the long end of the binding once
more and fold it back so that the raw
edge of the binding lines up with the
raw edge of the next section of the
table runner.
Begin sewing from the corner edge.
Stop sewing at a ¼” from the actual corner, leaving
the needle down in the table runner. Then rotate
the table runner to sew out to the corner edge.
TIP 4: Aligning binding to
table runner
Align the binding to the side of the
table runner and overlap the other
binding edge.
I like to use the Omnigrid Marking Ruler
to make this part. I set the center of the
ruler on the seam of the block and I then
mark the ¼” seam along each binding.
Ensure the mark is in excess on the right
side. Cut on the mark and sew binding
edge to edge. Then sew the binding to
the edge of the table runner.
TIP 5: Quick and easy finish
Here’s my final trick that I just love when
I’m in a hurry to finish a project and really
want a perfect binding finish.
I use ¼” HeatnBond Quilter’s Edge Iron-
On Adhesive Tape on the edge of the
back of the table runner and position
the edge of the binding over the tape
and iron to hold.
Position the binding as you want it to
look once finished as the iron sets it
to the tape and the back of the table
runner. Then position the table runner
top facing you and stitch in the ditch of
the binding. This will be the final step to
a perfect finish.
Hope these 5 tips will help you create
your best ever binding finish. Hope
