How to Sew a Minky Binding [STT]

There are lots of things that intimidate sewists about working with Cuddle® minky, but I think the task that freaks people out the most is using it for quilt binding. It seems like a crazy idea at first, then you do it and see how great it looks and feels. Sorta like using it for quilt backings; once you try it, you’ll want to do with most of your quilts.

A few weeks ago, we tackled Cuddle® binding for our Sew Together Tuesday and if you’re thinking about doing it yourself, this is a good place to start. I show different Luxe Cuddle® fabrics and which work best for bindings, which stitches you might want to try and give some tool tips that can be helpful.

I hope that helps! Happy sewing!

    Hi, I’m getting ready to self bind a quilt with Cuddle backing & watched a lot of your tutorials yesterday. They were so helpful. However, you mentioned a worksheet that helps figuring out the corner template as a link on your website. Can’t find it. Can you please reply with the link. Have to bind tomorrow as it’s a Christmas quilt needing to be mailed! Many thanks
