Well it is a bit practicing and a bit, I...Hi Irene,<br />Well it is a bit practicing and a bit, I have just enough fabric for each side and didn't want the last join to end up quite near to where I started.<br />Not sure how to keep from doing that - I suppose one would actually 'measure' rather than go by guess, but I don't get on with proper measuring so well. LOL<br />and perhaps I was thinking straight grain cuts weren't joined like bias cuts...but in replying to you, lightbulb moment...well why not? This comes from learning quilting over the internet or on your own.<br />Thanks,<br />SandySandyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04978514536651961190noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1969733001990713328.post-14736624634030598102013-05-22T08:48:02.755+01:002013-05-22T08:48:02.755+01:00Sorry Sandy. On rereading your post you say you do...Sorry Sandy. On rereading your post you say you do know how to do a continuous binding so my previous comment is not relevant to you. Why do you want to do it as two strips if you are using the same fabric for both sides? I am most curious. Perhaps you are practicing for the time you change colour at the corner.

This is what I did and now actually enjoy that process and so much faster than doing the four sides as separate entities. It is so fast. Only problem is if I have joined lots of strips for the binding I have to ensure the joins do not land on the corners of the piece.
