Aunt Marti's 52 Quilts - Susie's Magic Binding Tutorial

[@karenmorgan5931]

I know this video is 8 years old but I am new to machine quilting and this tutorial was AMAZING. Even I was able to finish a binding with perfect corners. Thank you soooo much. Will be returning to this video is the future.

[@cherieekwall1206]

One of the Best Tutorials! Stitching in the ditch with a flange is the best idea for machine binding. ❤and you sound like a great lady!

[@cindymaki7540]

I love this method and can't wait to try it. I love your soothing voice, the speed and your funny digs at yourself. The music was perfect also. Thanks, Marti and Susie.

[@margaretdevries8090]

Wonderful! Music is annoying thougth ! You have been great at showing us ! Looks easy ! LOL cannot wait to try it !

[@taurigal]

Loved the video! Very clear and easy to understand. It will definitely be my go-to reference when binding. Susie is a genius. And as if the video couldn't get any better, a Corgi makes an appearance! Oh my! It can't get any better than that! My Corgi has a mini sofa in my sewing room, and his favorite place is beside me while I sew.

[@dianesaienni5466]

Hey I am a new sew-er (3 months) and I understood all she said! Thank you for this great video. I've been searching for a binding video for a couple of days now. I will be referring back to this many times. Great job!!

[@maryrotertdogstaragility1013]

Beautiful finish, Aunt Marti. I tried to make this binding by memory at a retreat (no internet). Got lots wrong, a mess. Should have waited for a re-watch of your very clear tutorial. Hey, I did not know you have had corgis for so long! Great dog! Thank you, grateful I can still watch this video! Mary

[@noramingming]

You are calm, easy to understand, and just cheeky enough to keep me entertained! This is a beautiful tutorial and beautiful binding as a result! I love when you're not even meaning to you are smiling - really shows your passion for the art of sewing! Thank you

[@noramingming]

Also, as I am blessed enough to have good hearing, I thoroughly enjoyed the music in the background

[@katemorgan4346]

I've been waiting for the right way to machine sew on a binding and this tut is excellent. I really enjoy the music and could hear what was said clearly. You did a great job and thank you for taking the time and making the effort to do this for us!

[@petmomful2260]

Love the flange idea! If I ever decide to machine stitch my binding on, this is what I will do! I am one of those weird people who love to sit in the recliner, listening to a movie, and hand stitching my binding! lol

[@erinwittenburg3464]

This is my "GO TO" video. LOVE using two different colors on the binding and it is so much better for me than hand stitching. I feel it is stronger and prettier. SO EASY to follow. Your tutorial is perfect! Can see all of the tips and tricks while you are explaining. I have shared this with many friends and family who quilt. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and skills!

[@barefootquilter1991]

This technique has changed the way I will do binding forever! No more sore fingers and endless hours wrestling with my quilt on the couch while I hand turn one stitch at a time. Thank you for sharing. Just finished my first quilt using this technique and it worked beautifully!

[@nancych7081]

I just watched your video and I have to tell you I learned so much from you. I like how calm you are and the pleasant music playing in the background. You describe everything so clearly. You are a great teacher with a wonderful sense of humor. I'm going to try this magic binding on my next quilt. Thank you!

[@cazfromoz1]

"Seriously" difficult, no wonder you suggested long stitches to join the binding ends - but, its also quite rewarding. Love this method...on my second try it worked, perfectly. I'm so happy. Thanks to you and Susie. Well, I think YOU ARE a smartie, Aunt Marti...:)

[@tracybrewer8237]

FANTASTIC video. You are so easy to follow and understand.

[@janetmiles9306]

Thank you, clear instructions and love your honesty, so refreshing. I have saved it as my go to tutorial.😀

[@juliannaherrle7993]

Auntie Marti, I have to say that I really enjoyed the music...between your voice, the music and your very concise directions, I learned SO much! I am making my very first quilt!!! Thank you for sharing and making this video!! God bless you!

[@hollyrusso6429]

I've only put the binding on completely by machine before once and I normally like doing the back by hand while watching tv but the method you demonstrated with the flange is great! I'm doing a QoV and a wall hanging and will use that 1/4" gap between the ends of the strips to get a better line. I'm also going to try putting it on the back first and then using the invisible thread. I used that several times when quilting my table mats and table runners for this last Christmas's gifts. Thank you!

[@charliedeloach1222]

Great Video! Not too long, not too short! You showed all the details I needed and were so pleasant to watch and listen too. I can't wait to try this method!

[@elaineadair]

Your niece will LOVE the quilt! Thank you for clear demo of the faux piping/binding.

[@annettejohnston8653]

Well, Aunt Marti, I am definitely going to try this on my next quilt! Your clear, concise directions are very much appreciated. Thank you!

[@tracybrewer8237]

WOW. This has to be the best binding video I have found so far. I love the look the wee pop of color gives. So this video has to go into my stitching tips folder and the favorites as well. Thank you for sharing this.

[@katywuste9054]

She will have finished her education now, lovely quilt and well explained tutorial

[@joanhzamojcin98]

Beautifully done - and I don't just mean your teaching style - so easy to follow. The quilt is gorgeous, too. Thank you.

[@debotoej]

I tried it and it really turned out beautiful. Really added an extra touch to my quilt! Thank you again for sharing♥️

[@newworldtreasures5120]

Love this method Aunt Marti and love your matching nail polish!

[@carolhaskell8772]

Thank you so much for this video! I am a quilter who has developed arthritis and cannot hand stitch anymore! Now I can do larger quilts again!!!!!

[@JacobAllison]

Mom was really glad to hear it helped!

[@RoeRoe123]

Well this is just great. I've noticed all have something to offer, but this is truly the icing on the cake 🎂 What a simple yet gorgeous addition. Thank you. Oh now that's snazzy girl! I love how those nails match your quilt backing 💅

[@sjrbee]

I loved this binding demonstration....Love the flange...Thanks sew Much. Shirl

[@lisabcarter]

This is a wonderful tutoiral and I did not mind the music at all, could still hear everything you were saying. Thanks so much for this!

[@missannie8012]

Me too, usually the music is frustrating. This was decent.

[@RoeRoe123]

YOU NEED TO DO MORE SEWING VIDEOS! You're too good a teacher lady.

[@RoeRoe123]

Oh! I just heard 52 quilts! 👍👍

[@lucyyounkins5861]

Can't wait to try this 'magic' Susie!! Thanks so much! You are VERY good @ tutoring !!

[@carollittle7806]

Great video! I plan to use this method on the quilt I just brought home from my long-arm quilter. Thank you so much for taking the time to show us how to do this method.

[@jaynehuth4544]

Love your video! I'm a beginner quilter and I love the simplicity of this binding!

[@Mickey-jo1hf]

I see I'm behind in viewing but no less totally appreciate how awesome this technique is. Thank you for sharing.

[@wmael7550]

That was a good demonstration and technique. Love how you talk your time to explain. Easy to follow along and keep up with.

[@MarciaBaker1205]

I love the music. This is a great tutorial.

[@JacobAllison]

Glad it helped! I'll let mom know.

[@angelistic1111]

I love the look of the flanged binding and will be doing this in my present quilt. thanks for the detailed tutorial - you made it so understandable !

[@damsel1934]

Love tutorial, like the flange, and the thread idea. Nicely done, quite clear, thank you

[@briankobayashi4083]

what a great tutorial. I loved the music too. very easy to understand. love you corgy

[@KnitOutTheJams]

Aunt Marti, you and Susie are a couple of geniuses.

[@mimiwilson3810]

Great video! I am a beginner and the instruction is really thorough. You have a great teaching voice.

[@7470pc]

I just found this video and I am thrilled beyond words!! Thank you for taking your time showing this method of binding. :D

[@JacobAllison]

So glad it helped!

[@CloudyWishes]

Oh goodness! All you negative nancies, keep it to yourselves and scroll on! This tutorial is to help Sew-ers who are already sewing, not beginners who would not understand terminology 💫. I believe it's an excellent tute, well presented, clear language. I can see a lot of thought went into preparation. Thankyou I'm earmarking it for future reference.

[@5eagans]

Nice! The instructions seemed super clear and I think I might use this technique for binding in a future quilt. Many thanks!

[@MrLaura1964]

Thank you. It was so helpful and more informative than most videos out there. Have to save to my craft playlist, so I can find it next time.

[@barbaramarkland5759]

This was great. Thanks for taking the time to thoroughly explain how to do this. I attached the binding the same way no ruler. It works out just perfect. My next quilt, I’ll be doing this love the flange.

[@paulareeveslmt]

This was a great tutorial! Thank you. The quilt you made is beautiful! Love the design and colors!

[@bunelladunella]

Thanks for this excellent video. Clear, and all the information needed is presented in a very understandable way.

[@b.bailey8244]

Beautiful video with clear easy instructions - thanks so much for putting this favorite tutorial up on youtube where i can save it to my playlists!

[@grandmajo4781]

Thanks for taking the time to explain this so well at a pace that's easy to follow. I have saved at least four other tutorials on the flange binding and in almost all of them the instructor has accidentally mixed up a word or two. No one is perfect. P.S. I LOVE the fact that your nail polish so perfectly matches the backing!

[@chickad5820]

That was absolutely AMAZING! Excellent job, well put together. Easy to follow even if the word perimeter wasn't used, I got what you meant as a beginner quilter. Because I was highly interested in what you were teaching I didn't pay attention to the lightly played music in the background. Some will complain no matter what just know you hit your goal of teaching this binding technique and it was simple enough this beginner understood all the way through. God bless and will watch for others you've done. Thank you!

[@eileenalderman4789]

Music drives me crazy,it’s not needed

[@marshawallace7522]

I love flange bindings. Great tutorial!

[@rethamoore4282]

That was amazing !! Thank you so much for sharing this wonderful method with us . Love , love , love your quilt !!

[@sandybourgeois7332]

Juki must be the Nascar of sewing machines!

[@kathycomstock5442]

I love, Love, LOVE your tutorial! I'm a newbie and love all the tips and tricks!!!!

[@johannepaquette969]

Superb video. I haven’t made a quilt with any other method since seeing this.

[@keressabeverage2622]

Great tutorial, and loved the tribute at the end! Sweet!

[@elizabethbrickhouse4834]

Very helpful. You are a fine teacher,

[@sandraragan3785]

Truly a great way to bind and once I got the two ends together it worked out perfectly, thanks so much for sharing.

[@JudyHart1]

Your video was great, finished my quilt last night! Stunning, thanks so much.

[@cindityburski8531]

Gorgeous Quilt and such a wonderful tutorial--it's perfect!

[@janemounce2985]

thank you for a great tutorial. Can't wait to try it out. I make a lot of charity quilts for children in hospital. This will be a great timesaver.

[@kimberlywalders6063]

Great tutorial. So informational. Thanks for sharing this. Will use on future projects. Great job.

[@evonjoseph2256]

You’re a great teacher. Thank you

[@cazfromoz1]

Love it. I use this method EVERY time I bind my quilts. Perfect every time! And such a cute Corgi, too! :)

[@janepower9411]

What a great tutorial and a beautiful quilt!

[@ghargrave380]

Cut the music.

[@judywasenius5437]

That really makes it clear and looks great! Thank you! Judy

[@squirrelbuddi]

It was a good tutorial. Idk if I want the added step if sewing strips together for a large quilt but maybe a lap quilt I'll try it. I usually go for a single folded strip.

[@jt.s.7418]

I was waiting for you to jump for joy when you joined the binding 🤗

[@Momzie808]

I love the background music, it goes so well with your tutorial! Love your instructions, your so calm and very detailed as well. This is keeper for me. I also feel the same way at the end of the binding it’s my least favorite as well but you make it so easy! Thank you

[@mygeorge1951]

Gorgeous ❤️ ❤️ Gracias for sharing this technique! 😊

[@maryellendunn8899]

I did it! You were right when you said it doesn’t come out the first time so I ripped it out and did it again. My error was I was sewing the diagonal in the wrong direction. Thanks for sharing this binding technique. It really is the wow factor on my quilt. Wish I could show you. One happy quilter!

[@5280Ella]

You had me at "hate to do bindings'" and I'm so thankful for your ever-so-helpful video! I feel much more relaxed about binding my quilts b/c of your excellent tutorial. THANKS!!!!!

[@robinbird3656]

I have a couple baby blankets done up to the binding is ready to add. Now I will try this to complete it so much. Jean

[@chelseaupholstery259]

stunning quilt.. GREAT binding...

[@missannie8012]

Love how your nails match that backing . :)

[@JacobAllison]

Iirc mom did that on purpose.

[@ByCherS]

Fantastic tutorial! Thank you so much for sharing this fabulous technique with all of us!

[@reginascraftingandmore713]

Thank you for the tutorial - absolutely love the flange binding.

[@lizzystitch4842]

Excellent tutorial! Thanks for taking it slowly and explaining what you are doing and why. While some may not like the background music, I really enjoyed it....very happy and relaxing! The quilt you are working on is so lovely! Going to check out your website. Best regards!

[@barbarakarlon1766]

Very well presented. Loved it.

[@melanie_luv2_sew]

My eye are popped out of my head. Wow. Super Cool😎

[@glendasue2619]

I ran across your video while looking for binding for a Hawaiian quilt wall hanging that has been begging to be finished for a few years. Unfortunately, for me, my dining table is my only work surface. But I was determined to use this technique. The ending was really difficult. My sewing machine has such a small working area. I ended up doing it my hand. I was pushing myself to get it done NOW and I think I made it hard on myself. I will stop after work tonight to get the mono-poly thread. You are a marvelous teacher. Thank you very much for posting this. One more comment, I found the background music distracting.

[@warialdasue]

Thankyou. You described that technique so well. I’m doing my bindings like that fro now on.

[@ilovelucy7073]

Thank you ! I love it .... so neat and great idea to do. I love 💕 the music. KEEP UP YOUR WONDERFUL SEWING VIDEOS.

[@ilovehuuu]

this is SEW perfect, glad you taught me. I'm just beginning the binding on my sisters quilt now, it HAS to be perfect.

[@carolepowley5521]

thank you for your binding tutorial ,what a great way to finish our quilts

[@insidethepicketfence7445]

That was a wonderful tutorial! You made it look sew (so) easy but I am worlds worst binder! Lol I think now I will improve! 🌻

[@rosacraig9126]

[@darrylstrohl]

Great tutorial! I've used this method before and wish I'd watched this before I did. I love your music and your purple!

[@amandamoron-garcia5144]

Very clear and helpful demonstration, thank you

[@lindaleeharper5332]

Great pace and info. I loved the music.

[@airmom8716]

A really helpful idea and well presented, especially the corgie. Love the quilt itself.

[@darlenesorreyscott]

Where do you add the pencil lines at the join? At 7:40?

[@ritareese3688]

My question also! Was the pencil line filled in along the finger press line?
