How to sew a corner with the Quilt Binder:

Sew on the edge of the quilt, tie and then pull the quilt out of the Quilt Binder.
Keep the quilt close to the Quilt Binder when folding the corners. Press the folded fabric with your finger.

Create a square corner:

1. Fold and pinch the slanted top corner. Repeat in the same way on the back of the quilt.
2. To continue sewing the binding, pull the strip of fabric through the binder and at the same time place the quilt, presser foot, and back into the binder.
3. To ensure that the crease is correct on both sides and back, pull the quilt back and forth a few more times.
4. Lower the needle to hold the binding in place, position and remove the needles. Pull out long tails of thread behind the presser foot before you start sewing. Topstitch and sew the bias tape in place. Repeat on the other corners
