How do you hand sew satin binding to a blanket?

Sew satin trim baby blanket?

To sew a satin trim baby blanket, start by cutting your main blanket fabric to the desired size and then cut the satin trim to match the blanket's edges. Pin the satin trim along the edges of the blanket, right sides together, ensuring that the satin's shiny side is facing inward. Sew the trim in place, leaving a small opening to turn the blanket right-side out, then turn it and sew the opening closed. For a finished look, you can topstitch around the edges to secure the trim and prevent it from shifting.

How do you sew satin binding on blanket without bunching?

There are 2 possible types of binding - bias binding and binding tape. Bias binding is basically a piece of bias-cut fabric which is folded in on both edges, binding tape looks similar to ribbon with either a Matt or satin finish (generally the Matt tapes are made from cotton and the shiny satin tapes are man-made) and can be either straight or bias-cut. For the purpose of a blanket I'm assuming you are using the ribbon-type shiny binding. The best way to stop the binding bunching lies in good preparation a) make sure the blanket has been cleaned first - even if it's new get it cleaned - if it's cotton wash it. The purpose of the cleaning is to make sure that the blanket is pre-shrunk as one of the causes of puckered binding is that the blanket can shrink whereas the satin binding will not. b) measure the side of the blanket where you are going to stitch the binding, measure out a similar length of binding plus extra for 'finishing off' at either end - this 'extra' needs to be a couple of centimetres or an inch at either end (do not cut the at this stage, just mark the amount of tape needed with chalk or whatever you have that will leave a visible mark. c) pin the binding at either end of the blanket allowing the extra to hang over the end. Make sure the binding is lying flat against the blanket - if it isn't flat adjust until it is. d) now tack the binding onto the blanket using a thread that is clearly visible on the tape and with stitches no longer than a quarter of an inch/half a centimetre - make sure you tack both edges of the tape like this, but sufficiently far away from the edge of the tape for a machine to stitch along the tape without going over the tacking - if you machine over the tacking stitches you'll find it very difficult to remove them and may well need other equipment like a stitch ripper and tweezers. e) now machine along each edge of the tape at a slow to medium speed - if you sew too quickly it can cause the stitches to pull. f) finally turn the ends of the binding in upon itself and hand stitch to the back of the blanket. Et Voila! you have a nice, unbuckled edging on your blanket. A word of warning - even after all this painstaking work it's still possible that a cotton blanket could shrink further if you wash in water so, if it's really important to you that it doesn't pucker, always dry clean a cotton blanket.
