How to Sew Binding on Swimwear

Today we're talking about one of my absolute favorite methods of finishing my swimwear - with a beautiful contrasting binding! I just feel like adding a contrasting binding adds such a fun and extra special detail to your swimwear, especially if the swimsuit is a pretty basic design that needs some spicing up!
There are certainly other ways of applying a binding to swimwear, but I'm just showing you the method that works best for me and that I use regularly in my own swimwear sewing.
Enjoy the video!
