I have posted a link and the actual video, to the best video quilt binding tutorial I know. The tutorial is by Jenny of the Missouri Star Quilting Co. All of my quilting friends use this tutorial especially the part near the end where she shows you how to join the two ends of the binding together on the quilt. It is magical.

Watch it a couple of times. You will shortly be an expert in binding a quilt!
Here is a new quilt that I finished the design and now need to quilt and bind. Starry Night was made by placing strips on the vertical rather than on the horizontal. I kept all the backgrounds the same starry fabric. I varied the height of the horizon line. I wanted the moon to cast a glow so I highlighted the edges of some of the trees with yellow fabric. Adding the child on snowshoes gave the picture perspective. It was such a fun landscape to make. Thanks Susan for suggesting a snowshoe quilt. This popped into my head immediately and I couldn't wait to get started.
