That was three tips I have never learned anywhere else before (how to press the binding without buying special tools, how to roll up the binding, and how to clip the corners correctly). Your quilt is beautiful. Thank you for this video.

Absolutely the best binding tutorial I've seen. You so clearly show how to the corners, by removing the little bit of bulk, and also the joining of the binding, I think your method doing binding is just great. Thankyou

Terry, your video has got to be the best video about binding that I've ever seen. Your step by step instructions are so easy to follow. I love your homemade pressing mat. It works like a charm. Thank you so much for this video. I have saved it to my favorites so I can refer to it over and over.

I love your videos Terry. I’ve been binding quilts for a while now but I learned some new things today. Thanks so much!

may i just say as a person who finds many quilts sort of... a bit too 'basic 1850 farmhouse', that is one exceptionally beautiful quilt you are binding today. the rich colors, the sophisticated design, the lovely quilting, the nice loft of it. you are such a talented artist and craftsperson.

I have been doing this same binding application for at least 6 years, I call it the “one pin binding” for the pin used to take up the slack (at 26 minutes in the video). I have been doing the figure eight wrap to tame the finished binding for at least four. It doesn’t need clips as cotton grabs itself. Thank you Terry for spying on me and making this excellent video!
