Dingle Fold Binding

[easyquilts]

I have always used double good binding on my quilts. However.... I have been making some small bereavement quilts that are all flannel.... Flannel binding can be a little bulky....especially on small things.

I also want to make some Christmas themed mug rugs (my first), and was wondering if they are better with single gold binding.

I'm really not certain how to make single food binding.... What is the best width to cut your strips? Do you just sew the single raw edge to the quilt, then fold it over on itself? I know I should know how to do this, but I've always fine the double binding...

Thanks in advance for Yuit help and advice,

Edited to say ... You knew I meant Single, didn't you? Darn iPad!. I have to watch it every minute...
