No matter how many binding videos I watch, I always return to this one. It's thorough, it's not rushed, all of the steps are well explained, and I appreciate all the added tips and ideas. I love a wider binding, and I'm so glad for this video, b/c all of the wide binding issues are addressed. Thank you!!

I have watched countless binding videos over the 12 years I have been quilting to try to find a better way to have my binding look clean and neat/perfect - YOUR video tutorial is by far the best I have ever watched! I am so thankful to have found someone that doesn’t think that only a 2.25” or 2.50” wide binding is the only way to go. You make a wide/chunky binding look so beautiful - it truly frames the quilt! I always put a border on my quilt, and in doing so, it will allow me to use a wider binding. I can’t thank you enough! Your videoing skills (clarity-good angles for me to see exactly what you are doing), and your clear verbal instructions to go with the video are excellent! I am about to bind a baby quilt I made for someone, and I will be using your method exactly as you have demonstrated in this video. I can’t wait to try it! Thank you again! You are an excellent quilter/seamstress!!!

Great video. I'm a very nervous sewer, (if I can even call myself a sewer, lol). I haven't made anything but curtains. Trying to keep my sewing straight was my biggest problem. I recently made my youngest grandchild a fleece blanket with 4 inch satin binding. The fleece pattern was not double sided so I had to sew a back and a front. Watching your video with the change of different foots and several tape placements sure helped convince me I don't have to "white knuckle" my future projects. I want to make actual quilts for all my grandkids. I've also watched many binding videos in the last month and I kept asking myself why is the binding so narrow? I decided I don't like narrow bindings. Not knowing anything and never having sewn a binding I now know my project could have gone very wrong. It ended up pretty good for a first timer. I was so proud. I even used a zip zag stitch in a contrasting thread color!!😮 My Brother brand sewing machine has been used about 5x in 20 yrs. I need to look into that little bag (never opened) that has some tiny tools and a few more foots and read up on how I can use them to be more confident with the next project. I'm gonna be cutting 5 inch strips for all my bindings and using your measurement. That binding size is perfect for my taste. As you said in this video - binding is the icing on the cake. I'm gonna have so much fun with patterns and colors. My only question is do have to cut on the diagonal? I have no problem having to use more material. I'd really like to know if and why it's necessary. Thank you!!

Great tutorial! Best instruction I’ve seen! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👍🏻

OMG, I feel like I've died & gone to quilt binding heaven. You're an Angel & so slow & clear to learn & follow. Bless your heart ❤.. Thank you! Thank you my newest quilting teacher & friend 🎉

Wow.........excellent tutorial. I learned so much. Thank you!

Thank you for your detailed explanation for making binding. I love the tips that you shared. I will be using those tips in my future projects.

🎉Thank you, this is the clearest explanation I have watched and understood for making binding!

I am very impressed with your method of teaching. I am making table runner sized hot pads and wanted a nice wide binding on it due to the thickness of my project. After watching a few videos, I came back to yours because you described every step very nicely. My piece has turned out beautifully and now I know I can make some more of them using this same method.

I had finished quilting my quilt and was on the fence about the binding. I knew what I wanted to do a chunky binding but wasn't sure how to do it. Your video is awesome and so on point. Thank you!

THANK YOU, thank you for showing how to join the binding ends together so concisely in this video. THAT is where I always struggle not to get one end turned! Great job on this tutorial. I am saving it.

Thank you for this clear binding video!

I needed a 2" chunky binding and used your tutorial to successfully do it by following your instructions. Easy peasy! Easiest binding I ever attached. It lays flat, the corners were so easy to turn and miter, and I even hand stitched the binding down which I NEVER do. LOL! It took a lot of fabric but that particular piece sat around in my sewing room for many many years without a use. I was very happy with the whole process. I appreciate your willingness to go beyond the norm and mention you made a 2" binding. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Wow - great tips. Thanks so much for creating this video. Now I am ready to bind my “Put a Ring On It” from 2020 workshop 😊

Thank you, i appreciate your simplified binding steps.

I've watched numerous videos on attaching binding (wide) to a quilt. This is by far the best. Excellent detail and camera angles. Wonderful tips and tricks. I greatly appreciated the sharing of knowledge !!!

You are the most fantastic teacher I have ever seen. Connecting the two ends of binding has been a real nightmare for me until now. THANK YOU!!!!!

Absolutely brilliant video - I'm a virtual beginner and was dreading putting on the binding - the blue tape solution was a revelation. Well done and thank you.

I really like your clear instructions and how carefully you sew, when needed. I’ve looked at many binding videos recently and your style of teaching is one of the best!

Thank you for a clear and concise way to do this.

Wonderful teaching. Thank you!

Thank you for such a detailed explanation in this tutorial. Very well done.

I've watched a lot of binding videos but this one really explains a lot of extra useful details - like where to place the tape vs. the needle. That's very helpful for us who are struggling with getting the binding perfect.

So glad I found your video. It’s the only one I’ve been able to understand fully. Thank you for your great instructions and keeping it real. X

Thank you so much for sharing your tips, I’m a new quilter and struggling to do binding but you explained step by step so good I now want to try again.😊

Great instructions, very easy to understand. Thank you ❤

This is such a helpful and useful tutorial. Thank you!

Nice video, I really like a wider banding!

THIS IS THE BEST CHUNKY BINDING VIDEO I'VE EVER WATCHED, and I've watched a number of chunky binding tutorials! Thank you for doing this video. Your technique is so easy to remember and duplicate. Loved the formula at the beginning. I've done it by trial and error, but your formula makes it so easy. Two thumbs up on this video.

Excellent video….love your teaching method.

Thank you for sharing ! Your tutorial hands down is the best and for the first time I clearly understand how to join the end of the binding properly.

Your videos and tips are so crystal clear. Thank you for a wonderful video on attaching chunky binding.

Thank you so much! You made quilt binding so much easier. And the glue! Who knew.

This is the best binding technique I have seen. It turned out perfectly. Thank you and keep up the videos!

You are a wonderful teacher, thank you so much, I really learned alot. NOW IF I CAN APPLY IT!!!!!!!!!!!!???????

That was a really good tutorial, and I've watched a bunch. You talk through it but not needlessly so. Thanks so much for the video 😊 💕

I love how you teach!! Thank you

Thank you so much, Latifah! That was just perfect. I can't wait to try this on the queen-sized quilt that I just made, which will look really great with a chunkier binding.

Love your vedio. I definitely will use your method. Thank you

Gorgeous. I have to try big binding. I love it. You’re a fantastic teacher btw. Thank you for the tutorial.

Dang that quilt behind you is amazing!

WOWOWOWOWOWOWOWOW 🤩 I WISH I COULD LIKE THIS MORE THAN ONCE. JUST AMAZING. Thx for this amazing tutorial.

Great information, especially for a beginner quilter. Details were helpful& clearly stated.

Great tutorial! Love your nails!! ;)

I love this idea! It’s a border and binding all in one!

Thank you for the wonderful tips. I especially like the “snuggle the V to the needle” tip and the quick trimming to eliminate dog ears. You give a good explanation of the binding measurements, too. I will definitely try the chunky binding!

Thank you for the CLEAR and concise explanations!!! Even if I don't end up doing a chunky binding I still picked up SEVERAL tips for my next quilt!

absolutely fabulous amazing I have watched thousands of videos! you’re one of the top five people I’ve ever seen that has produced a video on KZfaq and be on point, it doesn’t have 15 minutes of. I like to listen to myself chat chatter.

I used your method and my quilt binding is clipped on and looks beautiful from both sides! I’m going to sew the binding on tomorrow!! Thanks so much for this great video!!!

Thank you for this incredible in-depth tutorial. I will finally be able to get my binding together on the first try with the fold trick!

Thank you so much to the eye opening chunky binding idea. Love how the wide binding adds to the quilt. Very well explained and I appreciate all the tips and tricks to putting it on.

You’re a great teacher. Thanks for the chunky binding video! 😊

Thank you for the great tutorial, I was able to put a wide binding on my project quickly and easily. I'm really pleased with the way it turned out!

Thank you so much. I have always had so much trouble joining my binding, but I was able to do it following your example. Much appreciated

Thank-you for going to the trouble of making this. I’m making my first really simple quilt and had hardly considered the binding…cut the fabric too narrow for what I need. Now attempt 2 is well under way. You explain everything so clearly, a real help.

Thank you so much for this tutorial. You made it so easy to follow. Never seen it done like this. 😊

Than you for your WIDER BOLD BINDING. i'm a seldom taught (fairly new ) quilter. I'll be 75 May 2024. Along the way I've wondered about a wider binding BUT figured more went into it & I was right. Watched your wide binding from start to finish. I'm quilting a quilt fir my great grand son & have already cut the 2 1/2" binding so I'm stuck with that BUT i'll be startingva quilt for his sister & I'm going to make hers a big binding using your method. I'm going to send you a pic when I'm done. Thanks again MamaLiss in New Jersey.

This is EXACTLY what I wanted to learn. I REALLY enjoy your teaching style and your encouraging way of validating personal choice in tandem with technique. THANK YOU!

Thank you so much for the patient clear video. I have been wanting to do a wide binding technique!😊

Regarding the glue... great idea. I have done the normal 2.5" double fold binding on baby quilts and what I used instead when the binding did not want to stay in place is 1/4 inch fusible web. Some people don't like using glue because it can gum up their needle so this could be alternative.

Thank you so much, Latifah! I really appreciate your generosity in taking so much time to produce these instructional videos! Can't wait to try this technique!

Thank you so much Latifah!! I'm completing my first quilt and had a really hard time with thin binding. I removed the binding that I had originally used and used your chunky biding technique instead. It was so much easier for me. And came out so much nicer! I love it! Thank you for this informative tutorial!!!

You’re an amazing teacher. Thank you so much for this tutorial.

Awesome teaching!

Thank you so much for this video. I've been looking for a video for a wide binding. Your video is the best I've seen. It has the best information, tips and tricks. Thank you again ❤❤❤

Excellent binding tutorial. Thanks for the video 😊

Your method really makes the binding stable. This is genius. Thank you.

Great tutorial 👍♥️. Very helpful to me, a novice quilter♥️

Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!! I just tried your method on a quilt I needed to bind.....this is the 1st time in my life that the join went perfectly the very first time!!! Thank you for being such a great, detailed teacher!!

I am so impressed with your clear tutorial. I was terrified of doing a sewn on binding. You made it easy. My first try was a hit for me!! Thank you!!!

you are a great teacher

Excellent tutorial _thank you

Thank you for finally coming back to KZfaq!!! Love your teaching style!!!

Finally, a fab connection tip for the join! Thank you 😊

Great and very detail tutorial Latifah. Thank you so much for sharing this technique. Had Learnt so much from you. God bless you!!!

Just discovered your video. Never saw this way of placing binding on quilt but always wondered if it could be done. Wow! And here you are!! Love it!!

Great tutorial. Thank you.

Thank you so much. I learned so much!

Excellent tutorial! Thank you so much for taking the time to share it. I love the way this chunky biding looks!

super great instructions. thank you!!!!!!

Thank you, this was explained so well. I finally have a clear understanding of how to make and add binding. Excellent video!!

Excellent job, thank you. Very helpful. 🙂

Hi from Louisiana good to see you tonight ☺

Thank you so much! I always wondered, where the seamstress eyes are focusing. Looking at the needle does not make the stitches straight. Love the way you explained it all. 😊

Light bulb moment for attaching the two ends...thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!!

This was the MOST detailed and completed tutorial I found on KZfaq. EXTREMELY USEFULL 👍👏👏👏 Thank you for taking your time to make this video and explain everything so well… how to do and why to do every step. ❤️

Thank you for this very informative video. Your work is excellent!!

Nice to meet you! I just love the way you teach. I am still having a problem with my binding technique and I hope to be able to put your technique in place. ❤

Thank you ! Very helpful !

Cool idea! Thanks!

Thank you for your very clear detailed instructions. I’m going to give this a try❤

Love your tee!!! ❤ Just found your channel. Subscribed.

Great video..l learned a lot about precision😊

Latina this was one of the best video tutorials I’ve ever watched!! You were so thorough with your explanation. I was looking for a tutorial for chunky binding and yours is definitely the best!!! Can’t wait to try this!! I will probably do a little quilt or table runner to practice first. I see you have the Janome Professional - do you like it?

Loved it

I totally love it and I’m going to use it on my next quilt thank you so much for showing how to do this binding ❣️✂️🪡🧵❤️💖💕

This was wonderful. I cannot thank you enough. I could not, for the life of me, figure out how to have wide binding (I wanted a 2" binding) and you explained it perfectly. I can relax now and finish my quilt. Whew! Thank you!!! One question--if your back and front fabrics are so different, how do you know what color thread to choose? Do you want to match the front or the back of your quilt? With the pink thread you were using for your top stitching, didn't it show up on the back against the white fabric? It didn't show in the video.

Great video thank you

I just love this technique and look forward to doing it on a quilt. So, if I’ve finished a quilt top (before quilting) and decide I want a chunky binding,should I just add a little “border” so I have enough outside my quilt top to add the chunky binding? Thanks.

❤ this! 👍👍
