Sometimes you don’t know what you don’t know! I was asked a couple of weeks ago about my “perfectly mitered” binding corners, and it made me realize how useful a tutorial would be. I've been doing my bindings this way for at least 20 years, so I've had a lot of practice. But, I think I can share what I have learned, and maybe it’ll help you too!
