Borders & Bindings, Finishing Your Quilt  with Paula Reid

1hr. 38 mins.

You've pieced your patchwork, now what?  Don't just slap on a border and binding and call it done...take time to continue the creative process, and do it right!

Learn the proper techniques and different styles for bordering your quilt.  Paula will teach you the best methods for achieving a square quilt that's "bound" to turn heads!  She walks you through border options - including a crumb-catcher - binding techniques - including prairie points - hanging sleeve construction, and more.

DVD is viewable on both a DVD player and a computer.  The bonus material is accessed by placing the DVD in your computer.  It includes the following PDF-format material:

• Quilt Pattern, sample table topper for exploring border techniques and edge treatments

• How to Measure to Accommodate Pieced Borders

Is that stack of quilt tops getting higher and higher? Have you always wanted to take your machine quilting skills beyond the “ditch”? Do you want to learn free motion quilting? Have you seen Paula demonstrating machine quilting on Simply Quilts and wished the episode was longer?

Now you can learn the basics and more in your home as Paula walks you through batting choices, the types of needles and thread, how to pin baste correctly, choosing stencils, quilting, and moving those BIG quilts through a standard size home sewing machine.

Paula quilts approximately 100 quilts a year for her customers. About 75% of those quilts are at least double bed size. She uses her Fluff & Stuff method to move those big quilts through the machine and she will show you how to start Fluffing & Stuffing too!
