The binding will be two fabrics with one making a narrow flange or the appearance of faux piping. This type of binding is all sewn by machine and very sturdy for a baby quilt. I am better at traditional binding and prefer it because handwork is a good reason to curl up in my favorite chair with a good book playing on my phone or a favorite movie from my DVD collection or Netflix. However, I need practice sewing the two color binding for baby and charity quilts that will receive much wear and laundering.
There are some great tutorials for the two color binding. Here are a couple:
