Help For a Newbie?

Hi all. Can someone please tell me how to finish the last corner of satin
blanket binding? I can't figure out how to do this so that it matches the
other mitered corners and looks nice. Help!

I for one start in the middle of a straight edge, not a corner, so that I can
join straight edges, instead of trying to end on a miter. that probably
doesn't help you much now, but for next time?

Actually LC, that helps a bunch! I never thought of joining on a straight
edge. I think that would be much simpler than trying to do it on a miter.
I will try it!
