Marilyn Hardy, a charter member of our guild and a nationally certified quilt show judge, has made and bound many, many quilts since she started quilting in 1981.
Marilyn is offering this full-day workshop to share the techniques and best practices in binding that she has learned over the years. Participants will bring a quilted top, learn how to square it, trim it, apply binding, turn corners that are square, make a smooth join of the two ends, and hand-stitch it properly. You will end up with a binding that looks good and feels good. And it will wear well!
Learn how to put a beautifully applied binding on your wonderful entries for the quilt show!
