I use the walking foot to attach to the front, then turn the double-fold binding to the back. I don't enjoy that part--wresting with the binding--but I love the final appearance of the quilt.Elainehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13195458656221202202noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1417118776285474181.post-45537433052079641682011-12-07T12:44:55.553-06:002011-12-07T12:44:55.553-06:00there are as many ways to bind as there are quilte...there are as many ways to bind as there are quilters. I usually roll the back to the front and machine sew it down. Sometimes I sew to the back and roll to the front and hand sew. For small projects I sandwich, sew all around and turn inside out and then either whip stitch or machine sew the opening. Each project is different and done whatever I am in the mood to do. cwcheryl from MOhttp://www.ozarkcastle.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.com
