I have an old tutorial on my blog but I've learned a few new tricks since then so I should probably update it. Alot of it is the same though. You can check it out here if you'd like: http://alittlebitbiased.blogspot.com/2010/03/sweet-bias-binding-tutorial.html<br /><br />Good luck on your future bindings and thanks for your kind words! Have a great day!<br /><br />AmberGigi's Thimblehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02104714701161170769noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4111251612193454477.post-86183167775376120792014-03-26T23:26:28.572-06:002014-03-26T23:26:28.572-06:00Happy birthday to your boy.

I like the look of bias binding, but the method of marking the lines, sewing the tube together, and cutting on the lines doesn't seem to work out very well for me. Maybe I just need practice? You make beautiful quilts.Jen Ohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14547871720535698564noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4111251612193454477.post-23987844589548847802013-10-21T02:00:01.659-06:002013-10-21T02:00:01.659-06:00Happy Birthday to your son!

And, Gandalf, in his great wisdom replies:<br /><br />"So do all who live to see such times, but that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us."<br /><br />I do have the free will, the agency, the human choice to decide what I'm going to do with the time that is given to me each day. And this is why I love the grounding/centering/the harmony General Conference is every 6 months. I am renewed in my divine purpose and my joy-filled choices. And, I am grateful to be surrounded by family & friends on the same path.Kareehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13064785750925559451noreply@blogger.com
