Binding your Quilt - Skill Builder
Many of us feel the same -- we get a binding on our quilt and we panic. We don't like to do bindings, they intimidate us, the fear of them just not looking quite right. This skill builder class has been created for just that reason!
This class will help you all the way from determining how much fabric you need for your binding, cutting your binding strips, connecting your binding strips, applying them to your quilt, even talking about getting your quilt ready for binding, doing the corners and lastly stitching it down. Also in the class, learn the difference between bias and straight grain binding and when it is appropriate for each type.
The fabric to actually do some sewing is included in the price of this class. Actual quilt sandwiches will be made and available.
