    Default I'm Stumped!

    I can't remember where I saw a tutorial with a guy (can't remember his name) that showed his technique on rounding corners of bindings. When he was 1/4" away from edge, he didn't turn the fabric (yet) he sewed diagonally to the corner, which gave him a 45 degree angle. After doing that on each corner he then showed how to take the bulk out of the corner without cutting the point off.

    I need to see how he did that, but I can't find him. Does any of this sound familiar to any of you???

    I watched a ton of videos over the past month, Coleen, and the only guy I've come across is the Quilting Cowboy:

    Oh JEEZ....
    I really need to get off the exclamation point.
    It may give people the idea that I'm bright and cheerful all the time....

    Thanks for starting this topic, Coleen. I'm now on my third Patrick Lose video and can see the rest of my afternoon disappearing on YouTube. (Hope the family will settle for toasted sandwiches for dinner ).

    I liked that tip! I'll have to go look up more of his videos. He was really pleasant to listen to.
