11. Pin the top panel of triangles to the wadding and back panel.
12. Cut your binding out of white fabric, 3 inches wide and the length longer than the circumference of your quilt by at least 10 inches. (You may need to sew two pieces of fabric together to make your length long enough).
13. Press the binding in half, wrong side to wrong side.
14. Start sewing your binding on a straight edge of your table runner with 5 inches of binding spare.
15. Sew with the raw edge of the binding lining up with the raw edge of the quilt using a half inch seam allowance.
16. At the corners stop sewing half of an inch from the edge and sew at a 45 degree angle to the edge of the table runner.
17. Turn the binding at 45 degrees across the sew line and then fold so the raw edges are lined up. Start sewing half an inch from the top until you reach your next corner and then repeat this process.
18. Leave around a 7 inch gap before you reach where you began sewing from.
19. Overlap the top piece of binding by 3 inches and trim.
20. Sew right side to right side of the binding at a 45 degree angle. Trim your seam.
21. Now complete sewing the binding to the quilt and it should fit into place.
22. Turn the binding in half so it covers the edge of the table runner on the back. Hand stitch in place using a slip stitch.
