Sewdreamy OFFLINE Posts: 2009 Thank you received: 160	Thanks for the link. I too use her methods for straight grain bindings. I guess I'll just have to bite the bullet and do a bias binding. The corners are probably too tight to use the crossgrain.

idaho OFFLINE Posts: 2531 Thank you received: 183	I have to say...cross-cut binding is all i ever make for straight bindings as I seldom have yardage enough for SOG. But Always bias bind for any curve !!! I'm with Connie...Not a nice turn on a curved edge otherwise !

She has a detailed curved binding video on YouTube. Starch and Elmer's School Glue are the tools she uses to tame the bias. Hope this helps! Personally, I wouldn't trust crossgrain fabric to have enough give to turn a nice curve...

Sewdreamy OFFLINE Posts: 2009 Thank you received: 160	I am almost finished with a special request quilt that is 36 x36 and it requires rounded corners. I don't like working with bias binding, so I was thinking that maybe cross cut binding, which is stretchier than long straight of grain cut binding might work. Have any of you ever tried this and did it work?
