I just ripped a binding off a baby quilt that I wasn't happy with. I have never done rounded corners and I am afraid I will mess something up!! But first I am googling how to make your own bias binding!! Thank you so much for this tutorial and I am building up the confidence to do it!! LOVE your blog!

When I spray baste, I first tape (using that great non-stick-forever blue painter's tape) an old shower curatin to the floor...just use a few pieces to hold it. Then tape (using same method) the backing (good side DOWN!)on top of that. Now spread the batting ( I am alsoa fan of warm 'n Natural)on that, & finally the quilt top, rolled as directed. This gives a smoother way of doing things w/o constantly having to adjust the whole thing. Love the "downhome" chatty way you do your tutorials!
