To make it easier when binding curves, iron the binding first. Fold it along the middle, gently stretch along what will be the outer edge of the curve, and steam press the curve into place. Even though the ironed in curve might not be an exact match for the curve you will be binding, it helps prevent problems when attaching it.<br /><br />Love, MuvMuvhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00734374133479479218noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8891791406203329867.post-20877746832508414012020-01-21T13:46:56.197-05:002020-01-21T13:46:56.197-05:00This finished up beautifully - well done!This finished up beautifully - well done!Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10020294112107230403noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8891791406203329867.post-59295447934856574242020-01-20T14:42:14.892-05:002020-01-20T14:42:14.892-05:00Have you tried gluing your bias cut binding strips...Have you tried gluing your bias cut binding strips prior to sewing them?
