How to Create Flange Binding the AccuQuilt Way:
- 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.
Why Quilters Love the GO! Flange Binding Die:
- 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!
- Free pattern downloads available to get you started.

Die Tips:
- 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.
