Potholder - Binding -

 

 

I cut my Potholder binding at 2" - 

 

And prepped it the same as I would for "regular" quilting binding - 

 

Then sewed it to the back of the potholder - 

 

Starting in the corner that I want to be the "top" of the Potholder - 

 

 

 

And sewed the corners the same way - 

 

I would if I was binding a quilt - 

 

When I got around the last side - 

 

And got to the "beginning" - 

 

I pulled the binding on the first side away from the potholder - 

 

And stopped sewing just short of the binding sewn to the first side - 

 

 

Flipped it over - 

 

And pinned down part of the first side -

 

I'll top-stitch it down with a decorative stitch - 

 

And miter the corners - 

 

When I get there - 

 

When I get to the end - 

 

I'll sew right off the end - 

 

And keep going until I run out of binding strip - 

 

But for now - 

 

I need to pin the binding down - 

 

And decide which decorative stitch I want to use - 

To sew it down - 

Then I'll sew it - 

And show you how I do the "loop" -

Tomorrow - ;))

Talk to you later - gotta go - gotta sew -
