Step 8 Bind edges of jacket
Stitch pieces for binding strip together to one long strip. Fold binding strip in half lengthwise and press, right fabric side facing out. Unfold strip out flat again. Now turn each lengthwise edge of strip in to the pressed crease and press again. Lay binding strip over edges of jacket (hem, front edges and collar) and pin. Baste -bind-ing in place. Stitch from right side of garment, thereby catching inside edge. Begin at one side seam and turn in end of strip.
