It doesn't matter what width you cut your strips. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Just line it up along the bottom edge of the strips as pictured.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
My binding turns out perfect.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
There's so many tutorials out there to attach your binding so I won't go into that.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Don't throw out the little triangles you cut off, just turn them into half-square triangles,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
eventually you'll have enough to make a little quiltie or mug rug.</div>
