How would one bind a square hole in carpet? The original carpet had a square hole in it for the shift boot to come through. I’m binding the rest of the carpet by sewing it then folding the extra over and sewing right beside the binding so no stitches are visible. I have tried a few times on a spare piece of carpet and can’t seem to figure it out. The original one was just sewn on with a visible stitch and trimmed the extra off around it.
