Perfect binding with no hand sewing!

Just use Liqui-Fuse!

Liqui-fuse works wet or dry.
Just apply and iron for a permanent hold even through multiple washings.

Click on any of these images to see a larger picture.

Stitch double-fold binding to right side of quilt, keeping edges even with trimmed edge of quilt.  Iron binding away from quilt.

Looking at the wrong side of the quilt, apply a thin bead of LIQUI-FUSE to the wrong side of the binding, as close to the edge as you can.

Notice I'm working on a very flat, firm, gridded surface called a SPACEBOARD.  

 

Fold bias binding to wrong side of quilt, extending beyond stitching line, press with an iron long enough to melt the LIQUI-FUSE, creating a fast bond.

Use a glass-head straight pin to carefully catch and turn the edge of the binding.  This results in less Liqui-Fuse on your fingers! 

Corners can be perfectly mitered with a little care.

Everyone will marvel at your ability to "invisibly stitch" your binding!

For tips on how to make bias binding, 

Check out the STRIP TICKET laminated guide to continuous bias.

The right sides looks clean and sharp with no stitches to show.

Quilts can be washed repeatedly without the Liqui-fuse releasing.

Perfect for table runners and wall hangings.
