Paper Piecing, Judy Niemeyer, Kathy and Zoom – it was meant to be!

I had tried paper piecing before, but not in the depth of the Judy Niemeyer classes. I didn’t care for pp until I took this class. I love Judy’s patterns and have been trying to find an instructor nearby. When

Binding Basics and Beyond! The Perfect Finish To Your Quilt

June 12, 2021 @ 10:00 am - 12:30 pm CDT
$49.00

Join me as you learn the many options available to you to finish your quilts with style!

We will start with the basics of trimming your quilt top and preparing your binding strips (Both straight of grain and bias!).  We will also learn how to turn corners to create those perfect mitered corners on your  binding.  And how you can join your starting point and ending point for a no lump perfect finish!

Then we will explore multiple ways of binding your quilts that can bring a decorative element to the edge of your quilt.  Methods include:

  • Using your backing to bind your quilts.
  • Using cording to create a decorative element on your binding edge.
  • Flat fold piping as a decorative element on the edge of your quilt.
  • Using Lace & Rick Rack on the edge of your binding.
  • Using Striped fabrics for bindings – different looks you can achieve just by how you cut your binding strips.
  • Rounding corners on your quilt.
  • Scalloped edges on your quilt.
  • Making and adding Prairie Points to your quilt binding edge.
  • Adding Ruffles to your quilt edge.

So many ways you can take even a simple quilt to WOW!  Join me in this two session series.

Saturday June 12 from 10:00 AM – 12:30 PM CDT

Saturday June 19 from 10:00 AM – 12:30 PM CDT

Excellent Class – Excellent Learning

I just finished the quilting fundamentals class. I am an average sewer for crafts/boho bags and some clothes. Was a little concerned I would be in over my head with my busy schedule. I absolutely loved this class, easy to

Wonderful notes with the pattern!

I ordered the Upsy Daisy pattern from your online shop and I just want to say thank you for including such wonderful notes about preparing the fabric and doing the applique.   You saved me from searching the internet for tips.
