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? The Blessed Fiddy, Patroness Saint of the Disorganized LC in Sunny So Cal Personality Development Specialist (Full-Time Mom!) |

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! Peggy "LC aka Fiddy" wrote in message ...
