Can I ask another question.... how do you finish a quilt if you don't bind it? I still use the same method for lap size or minis. I put the top face to face with the back fabric. pin the fabric to the batting with the top in the middle. I sew around the edge and leave an opening to turn it with. Then I turn it right side out and I sew a finish seam along the edge to give it a finished look I discovered that when I add a border to the pieced top - in miniatures that border is usually only 1/2" to 1" then when I get to the stage of the finish seam it makes the border look like a binding but voila I didn't bind it! Now this has it's own hazzards. You have to even out the fabric as you sew so you don't end up with a lot of fabric bunched up on one end but if you watch and pin well and watch as you see to hold the fabric or sew to the middle from each end you can reduce the problem. |
My doctor told me a few years ago I am an oddball because there were no answers to why I had the problems I did and I guess I am an oddball I don't do things the way everyone else does! I am always looking for new ideas. My dad used to call me the backwards kid because I read magazines from back to front and I do a lot of things just differant than most. |

Love your Sue quilt and they are all very nice!

Good job!
Love the little sunbonnet sues and the cars, of course! And the bars of strips are really bright with a rather unique sashing. It gave me something new to consider for sure! Thank you for sharing! |
They are all so cute!!
