We're going to finish it up today! I'm going to show a traditional double-fold quilt binding that is sewn to the front and then handstitched to the back. Ready?
First, carefully remove the paper from your trimmed block.
Next, get your backing, batting and Insulbright ready to layer. Be sure to make them bigger than your front by an inch or so. It's way better to trim them down at the end than to have one be too small. Trust me.
The order will be completed block (right side up), Insulbright (shiny side up), quilt batting, and then backing (wrong side up). On larger projects, I use fusible batting or quilt basting spray. If you've got the spray, feel free to use it. Since this project is so small, you can just use some pins. Just be aware of where they are and don't sew over them.
Prepare your binding. You'll need a strip 2.5" wide by 35" or longer. Carefully press it in half length-wise.
