OK, so I know there must have been a link to a bias binding site in the quilter's resource guide that I originally got when I came here, but that got deleted when I lost all my bookmarks a few months back (ain't computers just grand?). Anyway, I'd like to learn to make my own bias binding if it isn't too hard and thought someone out there probably does it all the time and could advise me.

Thus far I've only used back binding, but I want to learn for a project I'm working on. Besides, it's always good to have more tools in the shed. :wink:

is a good tutorial with pictures.

I'd like to learn this method as well. I am trying to find some good resources, but I think in the end I will end up taking a class because I don't know anyone who can show me in person. I did find this, though. http://www.joann.com/joann/catalog_o...1&PRODID=11900 It's a tool to make your own, it folds down the sides apparently while you iron. :D

Here is another link for continuous quilt binding.

June that is a great link, but it is straight binding. I always have to figure out how to do the part where the two ends come together and this link was very clear.
I know there is always a controversy over this but I learned if its straight sides straight binding, if it's curves bias binding.

Well, I also read in a book that bias binding wears longer than straight grain binding, so that is what I use. I have made my own too. It isn't hard. :?

Will try it soon then, thanks!

hmmm...what is the quilters resource guide? I never got one that i know of

Maybe not the same as mentoned, but here is a site that might prove helpful to new quilters:

I also use straight grain binding. I've learned the hard way that bias binding on straight edges causes the "wavies".
