[@Sunshine-zm1fx]

I'm making lined curtains (sort of like a quilt sandwich!) and I want to miter the corners like this using leather trim. Thank you for these very simple, easy instructions! it was so easy to understand.

[@CRVYGRL]

Thank you for the reminder on mitered corners! Very helpful video

[@DC-cd5tv]

Finally, something easy I can follow. Thank you for sharing this technique. 💗

[@kacievigil-crochetwithlove8699]

Thank you so very much for the miter tip. I just couldn’t figure it out! I am a self taught sewer and let me tell you, I wish I had paid better attention to my mother when she was sewing! Thank you again, my momma unfortunately is no longer with me, so, when I find help like this, makes me feel so appreciative for videos like this and folks like you to help out the unknown how it’s if you will and bring them to light. Thanks again! Cheers, Kacie V.

[@charlottenay5994]

I have searched for an easy to understand, precise method of sewing mitered edges and I finally found the best instructional video anyone could ask for. Thank you so much for this great tutorial.

[@sarahingram3809]

Such a clear tutorial. Finally I understand what to do. Thank you

[@beatricebrown8221]

Thank you! I've watched several videos on this topic and THIS ONE is the best!. You are slow enough for me to see actually what is happening without guessing what happened! Awesome and a million thanks.

[@Stressphree]

Totally agree that it is the best explanation I have seen and understand🤗

[@joanbaker5637]

Excellent tutorial and thanks for the great details and talking without music on.

[@beccacramer7990]

Thank you! This is the first video that has made sense out of quilt binding.

[@karenyoung9866]

Thank you. You did in 5 minutes what I have been trying to do all afternoon. You are right a visual is much better than a picture on a piece of paper. Corners are nice and neat, not overwhelmed any more.

[@kristiedentice7030]

Oh wow! Thank you so much for this video. You explained everything so great. & You pointed out a step that of a mistake I've been making. & That is to when it comes to folding the back, you fold the opposite way than the front. I think that's why I have never had luck with that part. I will definitely try this again, thank you so much.

[@Seasongrrl]

This is the best explanation on how to do a corner I've seen so far. Thank you!

[@chuchiedoubek772]

Excellent tutorial re mitered corners!

[@karenyatrionfante7566]

This is the BEST explanation ever. You have saved my sanity. I’m not good with angles lol, but I never give up!!

[@Elaine-ih5uf]

[@MsLynnhicks]

Spectacular - thank you for the simple explanation, and excellent visual examples.

[@lindaberry7355]

This was a very helpful video. I needed a reminder to make sure I was doing it correctly -the best part was learning to make folds go in opposite directions on front and back! School is never out for the learner and you are an excellent teacher ❤

[@susanwentworth1664]
