If quilt binding is the part you put off (or dread just a little), we have good news. This clever Binding Tool is here to make finishing your quilts faster, easier, and far more satisfying.

Designed to create perfectly folded, double-fold binding with ease, this handy tool takes a simple 2½" fabric strip and—like magic—turns it into crisp, consistent binding, ready to press.


Easy to Follow Instructions

Whether you’re a seasoned quilter or just getting started, this Binding Tool helps eliminate frustration and guesswork. You’ll get neat edges, reliable results, and a beautifully polished finish every time. Clear, easy-to-follow instructions are included, so you can start binding with confidence right away.


Using your favorite method, prepare the binding for your quilt with 2½" wide fabric strips, and trim off any dog ears. We’ve been cutting ours with the new Famore Rotary Cutter, and wow—it's not only incredibly sharp, but truly effortless to use!

New to binding? We’ve got you covered!

Check out our Binding & Beyond course and learn three essential techniques: classic binding, binding with your backing, and invisible binding (facing a quilt). With these skills in your toolbox, you’ll be able to choose the perfect finish to make every quilt shine.


Feed the unfolded fabric strip into the Binding Tool. The fabric will fit perfectly inside of the U-shaped opening.


Use a pin in the slot on the back of the binding tool to help feed the fabric through the tool until it exits the other side.


Slide the tool as you press your binding in half making sure the hot iron does not touch the binding tool.


Finishing your quilt should feel just as good as starting it.

Happy binding with the Binding Tool!
