Sachiko from Tea Rose Company and Tea Rose Home shows how to make a self-binding baby blanket.  Rather than applying a separate piece of fabric to bind the edges, a self-bound blanket wraps a portion of the back layer around to the front to bind off the edges.  This is such a nice way to finish off the edges!  Go to the tutorial.
