Binding your project with a little extra flair has never been easier! This die features the two strips you need to create a fun machine binding with two different fabrics. What could be better? Getting two of the most popular strip widths on one die board that will work with any GO! Cutter for added value!

Step 1: Sew 1 1/2" strips together to desired length and press seams open. Sew 1 3/4" strips together to desired length and press seams open.
Step 2: With right sides together, layer 1 1/2" strip on top of 1 3/4" aligning to one long edge. Sew together with ¼" seam allowance. Press seams towards 1 1/2" strip.
Step 3: Fold strips wrong sides together, align the raw edges, and press. Strip should be 13 /8" wide with 1/8" of the larger strip showing.
Step 4: Place binding with smaller strip side down on the back of quilt and align raw edges. Sew binding on with a 1/4" seam allowance.
Step 5: Flip binding to the front. Stitch on the seam of the binding to secure.

Flange binding is a favorite technique for adding machine finished binding to quilt projects. This technique not only gives you an attractive machine finish, but it creates a wonderful accent to the whole quilt project. The GO! Flange Binding die makes it easy to cut perfect strips for flange binding, sashing, narrow borders and more!
The flange is made by sewing a 1½" main fabric strip and a contrasting 1¾" accent fabric strip together to create the binding.
GO! Flange Binding includes ¼" seam allowances for easy alignment and piecing.
Cut perfect 1¼" and 1¾" strips, then use the angled guidelines to cut squares and diamonds.
Die blades are 23" long and are open at both ends to allow cutting of fabric that is still folded as it comes off the bolt.
Cut strips out of a variety of fabrics: cotton, batiks, flannel, fleece, Cuddle® fabrics and more!

With some fabrics, after cutting, a thread or two will remain where die blades meet. Snip threads with scissors.
Blades on some dies are positioned at an angle. Align fabric to edge of shape, not edge of die board.
Use good quality fabric to reduce fabric stretch.
It's always a good idea to test cut one shape before cutting many shapes to ensure fabric orientation is correct.
