I'm a beginner at sewing, and looked at several videos, even did a couple of tests of other methods before I came to yours, and found your instructions to be so clear and easy to follow. The results for me came out much nicer than other attempts. It actually looks like I know what I'm doing. ☺Thank you so much for sharing this excellent tutorial.
I agree and had similar experience. Somehow I managed to mess up some of the other, supposedly fool proof self-binding techniques. This one is clear and easy.
😅 7:29 your i structions are very ygood but whyndidnt you notice the pattern was off i found that really irritating, I'm surprised you you didnt notice. 7:38
@@christinapearce859 You're replying to my comment, not the main video. So, it doesn't make much sense. How could you not notice that? If one is going to make critical comments on someone else's 'mistakes' one should probably pay a little more attention to what they're doing themselves. Your whole comment is just a mess.
Fusabile batting will wad up and re glue itself in a mess in the dryer. We always use the plain fleece interfacing and throw a couple of rows of stitching across it.
Whoa! Did anyone else notice how the wool mat came to her when she needed it? That was awesome, I need to get me one of those!
It’s magic!!! Lol
Your instructions are perfectly explained and easy to follow. You're a great teacher. It really helps to talk all the small steps through so we can understand what you know by heart. I'm a beginner and your video is the best one I've ever seen that clearly and concisely instructs how to sew mitered corners for all levels of sewers! Well done and thank you!
Three years late to the game here, but your technique is way easier than other videos I have watched and tried to do at home. Thank you so much!
I can't even remember how many videos I've watched to discover how to miter a self-binding quilt! You have saved my sanity, Cindy, because your demonstration is the clearest and most concise step-by-step set of instructions I have come across!! Thank you so very much as I totally understand the process now!! You da bestest!! 🥰
Thank you so much. You're a very good teacher, I completed my first placemat, and I'm working on the other 5. The mitered corners are perfect. I've been sewing for years. You just taught this old dog a new trick.
Wow!! Finally a simple, easy and foolproof way to do mitered corners!!Thank You!!
I picked up quilting to keep sane while Covid. Never in my life I had quillted and I have amazed myself. This is the most awesome and easiest video for mitered corners I have seen in two years. I also learn another way to use my CG 6 inch ruler I had no idea about. I used this technique on a table top for Valentines. The best mitered corners I have done yet. Thank you Cindy for this video. Keep them coming as you have another subscriber.

This is OUTSTANDING! Thank you so much for sharing this method!
You are an excellent teacher. You explain things very well and go at a good pace. Much appreciated.
This. is. AMAZING!!!! I have a machine embroidery/sewing machine placemat design that uses self binding. The instructions were perfect until they got to the binding part, then it was completely not understandable. I found this video and practiced on scrap fabric and it works perfectly! Thanks SO much.
Thank you for doing this tutorial. Your description and examples are excellent. Using this video, I made my first set of four quilted self-bound placemats and they are lovely. Thank you again.
I make placemats all the time but your video provided an awesome, yet simple way to do the corners (which are always a challenge!!!). With your instruction, I believe my binding on not only placemats but also table runners where I use self-binding will be so much more attractive & provide a beautifully finished look. Thank you sooooo much!!! Happy sewing!
Thank you!
So beautiful and elegant!
I had trouble with my machine and I got it back sewing . I prayed before I started back working on it. Thank the Lord
Always ask for wisdom. So true.
Cindy, Thank you for the time you put into this video! A friend has 300 placemats to have ready for Thanksgiving. Will send her this video. Your binging technique
I also have a Pfaff. Love this machine. I bought a 1471 in 1995. I made all my toddlers clothes then. Now I have a creative icon, and now I make my children and grandchildren quilts. Love the Pfaff product. Best sewing machine ever made.. Love your placemats. I will have to make these next. Thanks for sharing your video with all of us. Great video ❤️
I had a Pfaff and hated it. Worse machine ever. Now have a Juki and love it
You are a wonderful teacher. Thank you very much.
Ditto all below. Have tried many methods of using the backing as a binding for the front. This method is excellent. Kudos on the instructional value. Nothing left out and done at a pace that is easily understandable. Thank you so much.
Glad I found this after a morning of messing up my doublefold binding application. Back to the drawing board with hopes of a better outcome--thanks so much!
I love this tutorial! I did it! I made self binding placemats. Thank you so much! Now i have Christmas placemats!
Great video. I have never seen the corner done that way before. “sew Easy” Thanks.
Great video I learned a lot on these placemats. I look forward to making them. God's blessings.
This is a terrific tutorial!! I love that you don't have to actually bind the edges as you usually do. I will be using this wonderful sewing idea myself. Thanks so much!
Of all the videos I've watched this is the easiest way to get great mitered coroner's. Thank you so much. ❤❤😊😊
Love the tute. Love the chickens with the chicken wire border. They'll never escape!
Your placemats are just beautiful! Thank you again for sharing your cutting and sewing steps along with sharing your favorite tools for the very best results.
Hi Cindy and greetings from the Fraser Valley of BC. This video popped up in my feed July 2023 and I have just subscribed. What a genius method! I am totally going to try it.
I also have struggled with mitered corners, this is the best video I have seen. I am so glad I came across your video.
I am impressed with your mitre technique, it gives a very professional finish. You have just taught an "old dog" a new trick. Thank you so much.
Thank you. "SUPER SIMPLE!!" turns out to be accurate. Binding is the only step I struggle with (and consequently the only step of quilting I dislike), but your technique is clear and easy and will let be avoid the traditional binding. Thanks again.
I am so glad I found your video. For a long time, I've been trying to do this type of placemats. I am going to try this today. Thanks for sharing.
Hi Cindy,
I’m new to sewing and quilting and have been tried several different placemats viewed on CZcams. This one is by far the best and easiest. My hubby (of 47 years) is very impressed with the mitered corners and they were so easy. Thank you so much for your tutorial.
Very well executed mitered corners! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
New at quilting! Saw the words "Self Binding." I have been working with flannel and was having so much trouble with the corners of the binding, even when I bound with the backing. This method works wonderfully. I can't thank you enough.
Thank you for sharing. Today I learnt how to do the corners in a very simple way. I am an old lady . I am from Sri Lanka. God bless you.
Thank you for this tutorial! Think I have just found what I am going to be making for Christmas presents! Xx
Best mustered corner I've ever made, thank you.
Awesome! A perfect Beginner tutorial, with the basics of stitching, corners, step by step planing... Thanks for upload and producing this Video. Well done!
Cool. I have one day to make something for my Grandson. He's into trucks and I have the perfect fabric to use. The placemat will be perfect to go with the theme of his party. Thanks
I got the placemat and a small napkin made. Thanks for sharing this technique. My niece wants one with Princesses for her birthday in December.
Thank you for this super tutorial. 😊I love this technique and your instructions are so clear. I'm just starting to make a set following your tutorial. Your chicken placemat is gorgeous and vibrant.
I LOVE THIS METHOD FOR BINDING MY PLACEMATS AND TABLE-RUNNERS!! It is so easy to do and finished product looks so professional! I just whipped out 4 Christmas placemats and a Table-Runner in no time! Thanks so much for sharing!❤❤
So concise and easy to follow. The best method of self binding ever!
Thanks so much, I love your technique for mitering the corners, and the tip for using the open toe applique foot... such a great idea!!!
I have made these type of placemats but I never did the corners like this. So much neater then how I do them. Thank you.
I have made these placemats and table runners before but I never did the corners this way. I love this method. Thank you.
This was the easiest mitered corner video I've found. Thank you
This is such a great, easy to follow tutorial Thank you! I am having so much fun making some Christmas place mats.
Loved your directions. I’ve been sewing for many years and made lots of placemats, this will be my new method. Thank you
I am so happy to have found your video. My binding looks awesome thanks to your instructions and video.
I have done blankets somewhat like this - but never did a placemat - TYVM for sharing this with us - Merry Christmas
Thank you so much for this easy way to do mitered corners. It has made by gifting creation so much easier and they look so much better than the way I used to do the binding. Thanks again!!!! A FAN!!!
Love this idea. Nice crisp corners here! Thank you. I will make these with Christmas fabric!
This is very informative. It will now be my go to. So much easier than anything I have tried yet.
Great tutorial - making place mats for meals on wheels as my quilting club's charity project for 2021 and this will be a great finishing step.
Cindy, you are a genius. I've not ,made placemats before as I did not want to mess with the applied bias binding. Thanks you!!!
Thank you so very much. You are a great teacher. I can't wait to use these methods, so much easier then the way I have done it.
I wish I lived by you❤️ This is the best video and slow enough & clear enough that I’m going to try these with potholders also😊. Thank you so much
I just watch this again, unbelievable how easy this is.
Gifts for everyone💃💃💃💃💃💃Thank you sooo much, i'm
Going to make a lot of people happy. Myself as well.👍👍👍👍👍🙏🙏
Thank you Cindy for the great video. I so miss our Tuesday quilt nights, always learned so much with your patience and expertise!
Love your method! A lot easier and "cleaner" than some I've seen... ❤
Beverly Lewis. love the video I actually made one place mat, the only trouble I had was cutting the corners and sewing the two pieces to form the mitered point,I could not see how you were doing that, but I figured it out after a few tries, thank very much foe a terrific and easy patter and video.
Super!! Glad I found this again! I need 20 placemats for a craft sale! This will make them much easier!!❤
Fascinated by your methodology for self binding. I love it.
Great simple way to make beautiful placemats. Can't wait to try it. Thank you.
Well this is just too cool!! Thank you! I hardly ever use my table but I decorate for each season with placemats and napkins but have never sewn any placemats. I think I surely will now.
Thank you for the mitered corner tutorial! Those mats are so nice!
Subscribed! This long-time sewing gal learned a thing or two :) Thanks so much!!!
Love these thanks for the great tip on the corners !! Heading to my sewing room !! 😀😀
Have fun!
Brilliant! I was looking for a video that showed how to quilt the top middle fabric only, as I have an end-to-end design I want to use. Thank you so much for sharing this.
Fantastic way to miter corners! I've always used backing fabric to bind mug rugs but the miters often didn't come out quite right and the folds could be quite bulky. This method is infinitely superior . Thanks so much! 👏
Thank you for the very detailed directions. I'm making placemats for my daughters new home. I've never done anything like this before as I normally sew clothes, it was a little overwhelming, but when I followed you step by step, I became more confident!
Fantastic! GReat idea and tutorial....think I'll start finishing my small wall hangings this way too!
Very nice! I just purchased a new “fancy” sewing machine and you have given me some wonderful ideas. Thank you!
What a great quick method, will try this one some mini quilts
Thank you so much! I’ve struggled with mitered corners on self binding projects so I avoided them. This gives such a nice professional finish and you show it so nicely.
Wow, great method, thank you
Really like this pattern. You’re a very good instructor had no trouble following along with you. Have a Blessed Day.
This is by far the best video for how to do the mitered corners. Thank you SEW much for your time & video. I am subscribing in hopes you will have more great ideas.
Awesome! Thank you!
Thank you so much I agree that mitering technique is fantastic and I’m going to be using it on baby blankets from now on.👏👏👏😉
They are beautiful.
I've been making placemats for years but have never used this mitered corner method so I'm excited to try. It looks so perfect and so neat. Thank you
You make it so easy...I even checked my ruler...thank you
This the first time l see this tachnic...it realy good and time concuming...so acurate..thank you for sharing💐🙏👍
13X17, great size. You can get 6 front pieces from one yard, or 4 backing/edge pieces! Love that ruler!
Yup. And that ruler is the absolute best for flying geese
Thanks !! Now I know how to do the corners. I love the chickens. 💜
This procedure makes it so much simpler to make a placemat with interesting details!
Thank you for this tutorial. I found it was very easy to follow and I have just completed two mats to cover my boxes. Very pleased with the end result.
I really liked the way you mitered those corners…..nice!
Thanks - it's a great way to do wide binding. Love it!
I came across your video as I was trying to figure out what to make with some fabric I’ve been holding onto , your instructions are so spot on and easily enough to follow . Thank you so much for this great video , I also subscribed 😄
Really explained this so well! Thank You. I used this technique on a table runner I just made.
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks for your video. So very helpful. Love my Studio 180 tools.
Nice video for this self binding method. Placemats are a good way to practice using all those quilting and decorative stitches. I also use this on tablerunners with 90 degree corners.
Fantastic… think I could make my border wider, too!!! Thank you so much
wow! what a beautiful machine! i still have my little Brother sewing machine i got over 40 years ago as a gift. i’m sitting here drooling!! oh, love the video! will be making for gifts! 🤗
It certainly is. When you are in the market for a new machine be sure to check out Pfaff. They are truly wonderful.
@@CindyBeesQuiltShoppe ….will do!
Marvelous! I never knew about this way of making corners and my corners are so bulky and chunky. Thanks for the information.
Well i finally got around to following your instructions. Very simple compared to what I have done in the past. So much prettier too. Thank you. It seemed like it was going to be difficult, but it wasn't.
Yes beautiful finished corners. Thank you for the terrific, step by step video.
Best looking placemats I’ve ever made. Thank you for showing us your method. 😊
Awesome video on place mats. I’ve learned a couple new steps on making my place mats. I love to see your take on a table runner if possible.
If you would like a matching table runner, cut the main fabric the size you would like, cut the backing 2” wider on all sides, ie. if the runner is 18” x 30” cut backing 22” x 34” and sew the same as the placemats
Fabulous instructional video! ( And it always helps to have that third hand to place a wool mat in reach when you need it.😉😀)
