Greetings Quilter,

Do you have quilts that are waiting to be finished because you are looking for a special way to bind them?

Oh - you've seen the regular binding on a quilt - double fold bias binding with mitered corners; self- binding where you fold the front of the quilt around to the back or the back of the quilt around to the front; knife edge binding - where you simply stitch around the outside of the quilt - but this quilt is special, and you need an extraordinary kind of binding.

And you want it to be beautiful and easy to add!

Maybe this is the first quilt you have finished that has curved edges, and you aren't sure how to add the binding so it will be nice and smooth both around the curves and inside the corners.

Possibly you are looking for some inspiration and a new type of binding that will make your quilt look really unique, and you just don't know where to look.

Or are you secretly looking for some out of the ordinary way to finish your quilt that will impress your family and friends so they will finally know that you really have some quilting skills - and that this isn't some trial and error thing that you are still trying to figure out?

(Shhh . . . It's OK, we've all been there and we won't tell - - it's a little quilters' secret!)

 

I Remember the Frustration!

Because I taught myself how to quilt and didn't have many quilting resources, for years the only finishing I did on my quilts was either wrapping the backing around to the front or wrapping the front border around to the back of the quilt.

Then one day, I overheard a quilter in my local shop talk about how the edges of a quilt got so much wear that if you didn't use double edge binding - preferably bias binding - you would have a problem when the fabric on the edges of the quilt wore out.

If that happened, she explained, there was really no way to fix the quilt, because the border was the binding. I guess you could add a new, separate binding, but that repair might look really obvious and destroy the look of the quilt.

It made sense to me, so my next quilt had double fold bias binding. You know, the kind you buy at JoAnn's or WalMart. Oh, it was 100% cotton. And I did use different colors on different quilts - white, off white, navy blue, maybe even black. But it was boring and expensive! And there weren't very many colors.

mis-matched binding
If only I had known how to make my own binding, this mis-match of pre-made, store-bought binding wouldn't be embarrassing me today.

Plus when I ran out of white binding in the middle of a quilt and the store didn't have any more white binding, all I could do was use a different color. And that looked pretty bad!

Maybe you know how it is. This quilt was a gift for my crazy brother-in-law and his wife. My ex-husband thought the whole project was stupid. I figured nobody would care, and with two small children, it wasn't worth traveling all around town to find more of the right color binding.

And so for years, the binding on my quilts looked like an amateur put it on. But, I didn't think I had any other choice. It never occurred to me that I could make my own!

Then one day, I took a workshop where the teacher was talking about finishing quilts. And I was introduced to making my own binding. Bias binding at that! During the workshop, we saw how to cut the strips, sew the bias seams, fold the strips in half and then attach the binding to the raw edge of the front of the quilt.

Once she showed us, I discovered that it was really simple. And it made all the difference in the look of the final quilt.

binding a quilt with a mitered cornerUsing Penny's techniques, the mitered corners of the binding on your quilts can be an exact 45º angle and flat and smooth every time - even with two colored binding like this.

 

And she even taught part of the secret of smooth mitered corners.

From that day forward, no more store-bought binding for me.

My binding wasn't perfect by any stretch of your imagination until I added my own techniques to what I was taught.

I spent years making all of those little adjustments in my binding techniques.

Nothing big, just little adjustments that - for me anyway - make the difference between professonial-looking binding that makes your quilt beautiful, and bunched-up binding that jumps out screaming "I don't have a clue how to add binding to my quilt."

Plus I discovered some speed techniques.

Many quilters measure and mark their binding when they sew mitered corners onto their quilt. I figured out a way to just fold the binding and still create perfectly mitered corners without any measuring or marking - just folding. Easy and with beautiful results.

And I shared those techniques with you in The Ultimate How to Bind a Quilt DVD Mentor.

 

The How-to-Quilt.com Quilters Want More!

After I sent the DVDs off to Tony, my Ace DVD copier guy in Kansas, I started getting emails asking how to bind a quilt with curved edges; and how about a Grandmother's Garden quilt with hexagons? And then how about simple binding where you can add one side at a time and not miter the corners or do anything fancy - just finish the quilt?

I had demonstrated the ways I thought most quilters would want to know in The Ultimate How to Bind a Quilt DVD Mentor. But when I discovered that you wanted to know many more ways to bind a quilt, the challenge began - to discover other unique ways to bind a quilt.

tumbling blocks quilt corner
A corner of my Tumbling Blocks quilt. This quilt will be finished by quilting daughter, Stephanie, and she will need to know how to make binding that will look perfect with all of those inside and outside corners.

This journey began with a kind of personal mission. At some point my Tumbling Blocks quilt will be finished, and quilting daughter, Stephanie, will need to know how to bind it, with all of those inside and outside corners.

(This is a quilt that includes a piece of each fabric I have included in a quilt. I have told Stephanie that I can't possibly finish it since I will continue making quilts until I can't make them any more.)

But I hadn't described how to bind a quilt that had all of those inside and outside corners, whether it was a Tumbling Blocks quilt or Grandmothers' Garden quilt.

Once I had figured out the best way to bind a quilt that had a lot of inside and outside corners, I remembered that many of you had asked how to bind a quilt with curves.

As I perfected my method for binding a quilt with curves, what I discovered was quite interesting.

Actually the binding part is relatively simple, and uses many of the same techniques that are used in binding a quilt with hexagons. What makes curves more challenging is deciding how to change a quilt with straight edges into a quilt with curves.

After some experimentation and exploration, I discovered a method for creating a curved design and marking your quilt so you can cut the curves and bind it beautifully.

It didn't stop with those two additional methods, though.

I had always heard about French Fold binding, but never really knew what it was - let alone how to bind a quilt with that technique.

After some research, I discovered what that type of binding looked like and developed a method for adding French Fold binding onto a quilt - easily and beautifully.

I could continue the story of my discovery of each of the different methods for binding a quilt, but that would be really boring.

The point is, that now you can have 7 additional ways to bind a quilt that will make your quilts stand out in the crowd.

 

But, hold on a minute. Maybe you don't know - -

 

What's the Big Deal About Binding?

Quilts get bound every day with some kind of fabric. Sometimes it matches, other times it contrasts. Sometimes it is wide, other times, it is narrow. Sometimes single fold, other times double fold. And sometimes quilters fold the last border around the quilt to the back, or fold the backing of the quilt around to the front.

And what difference does it make as long as the quilt gets bound and finished?

Many quilters get into a routine, where they like to finish a quilt using one method.

Most of my quilts are finished using double fold bias binding. It's easy, and I don't have to think about it. But, then, there is the "odd" quilt.

single fold bias binding
Wall hanging finished with single fold bias binding made using a bias tape maker.

For example, I was working on a wall hanging. It was just a small piece, and I didn't have a lot of the fabric I wanted to use for binding. So, instead of doing a double fold bias binding, I used a simple bias binding that I made using my bias tape maker.

Another time, I had a quilt that I wanted to finish so you couldn't see the binding at all, so I made binding that exactly matched the pieced border on my quilt.

And then there are the quilts with curves or something like a Grandmother's Garden quilt, with hexagons on the edges.

How is a quilter to know all of the possibilities and which to choose? Especially when you are new to quilting.

If you have been around quilting for a long time, you probably have a collection of magazines with pictures of quilts and articles with ideas for finishing quilts that are different and interesting.

But if you are a new quilter and don't have the collection of magazines, or the collection of quilting friends with magazines, or a local quilt shop to get ideas from, you may be stuck with the same old binding - whatever you learned or figured out yourself is how all of your quilts are bound.

And, even if you had an idea, would you know how to actually sew the binding? Believe me, I've read the instructions, and many of them are not clear at all. The quilters who write them are all experts and have forgotten that not all quilters know everything that they do.

And, if you are anything like I am, if it's too confusing or looks too complicated, I just go back to something I know.

We showed you the 6 most common ways to bind a quilt in The Ultimate How to Bind a Quilt DVD Mentor.

And now you are ready for a wider variety of methods to bind a quilt.

These new methods for finishing your quilts are all easy, so don't feel like they are "advanced" techniques. They are just more creative ways to bind a quilt. And we are all about being more creative quilters, aren't we?

 

You Had No Choice . . . In the Past

It's not your fault, and maybe it's not really their fault either. Maybe they thought they told you everything. Or maybe they told you everything they knew. But it wasn't enough. Their information didn't include all of the nitty-gritty details you need to be successful in making beautiful binding.

Or, maybe they really tried to give you all of the information you need to make the binding, but their description just didn't quite hit the mark.

But things can be different for you now.

I know how frustrating it is to learn something new, especially when there isn't an expert sitting right there showing the next step and explaining it so anyone can understand. You should have been inside my head the first time someone explained how to stitch the ends of the binding together on the machine.

Hearing it once or twice was just enough to confuse me. Yet, I knew there had to be a better way than the way I was finishing my binding. So, I found an expert, asked tons of questions, read the description in the book about 57 times (even though the cover said the instructions were easy-to-understand and the pictures were perfect), and then tried it.

It only took sewing, ripping, and re-sewing it a few times before I figured out how it actually worked. And with some more practice, now I can get it right. But it would have been much easier if someone had shown me.

It's like so many other things about quilting. You look at the pictures in the book; talk to a quilter or twenty in an online Discussion Group; fold, re-fold, stitch, rip and re-stitch; talk to a friend; and generally gather as much information as you possibly can to answer all of those questions.

But in the end, those other quilters didn't share all of the tips and techniques you need to make beautiful binding on your quilt.

It's not your fault, and maybe it's not really their fault either. Maybe they thought they told you everything. Or maybe they told you everything they knew. But it wasn't enough. Their information didn't include all of the nitty-gritty details you need to be successful in making beautiful binding.

But things can be different for you now.

In our survey, hundreds of you said that binding was your biggest challenge in making quilts. As a matter of fact, scores of you said that you have quilts stacking up on your shelves and hiding in your closet waiting to be finished. But you didn't know how or where to begin making binding for them.

Unfinished quilts - just for lack of binding.

 

Here are just a few comments many of you made about binding in our survey last July. These exact comments were made by scores of quilters:

  • I would rather make 10 quilts without binding than bind one
  • I've been kind of scared to do it without some help
  • I can't seem to figure out how to bind a quilt just from looking at the pictures
  • I've never actually finished any of my quilts because I've feared the binding
  • The mitered corners scare me
  • I could not understand how to cut the binding or how to sew it once I had it cut
  • I am afraid I will not have it laying flat
  • How do you keep the binding from getting that little bubble in front of the presser foot?
  • What other ways ARE there to bind a quilt?
  • How do you know how long to make it so you have enough?
  • . . . and hundreds more like these

 

Since I feel your pain and want to help make your quilting more fun, I decided to something about it. After all, the thought of unfinished quilts hiding in closets is very painful to me - especially when they could easily be finished if only you had the information and confidence you need to finish them.

I pulled out all the stops, found more creative binding techniques, created some tiny quilt-looking pieces for demonstration and started sewing. After several weeks of sewing, filming, editing and writing, it's finally finished and ready for you:

Once Again, Video to the Rescue - 7 DVDs of Video Totaling 3 Hours, 51 minutes and 32 seconds, to be Exact

 

Video, yes. But this video is different. While our previous videos have been from start to finish demonstrating how to make one quilt, these videos are completely different. Each one shows a different, more creative way to bind a quilt.

This isn't just about making bias binding, or folding the backing over to the front, this video set has 7 creative ways to finish a quilt. All of these methods are easy enough for beginners and include techniques and tips that intermediate quilters will find helpful in making your binding better.

Watching these won't be like watching grass grow. And, you won't be watching me sew long stretches of binding on big quilts.

straight grain binding
Using these techniques, your quilt binding can have perfect mitered corners, too.

You get just the important points. Watch while I fold the binding to make a perfect mitered corner, and listen to my tips for making it perfect. Learn what's important and what you can let slide because it will get covered over with fabric later.

Pick the type of binding you want to learn about - if you are looking for some simple straight grain double fold binding, pop in Disc 1 and watch while the mysteries of creating straight grain binding and sewing it on your quilt - including mitered corners - unfold. By the end of the 29 minute video, the binding you sew onto your next quilt will look like the 100th time you have added double fold binding.

prairie points
Another option is to add Prairie Points. You'll see how to add them using a single piece of fabric - no more cutting and folding little squares.

Or check out Disc 3 and see how to add Prairie Points with perfection. The fascinating thing about this method of adding Prairie Points to your quilt is that each side uses only one strip of fabric!

That's right. Just cut one strip, fold it into Prairie Points and sew it onto the sides of your quilt. No cutting little squares, burning your fingers on the iron folding them into tiny triangles, and then stitching them onth the sides of your quilt - trying to keep all of those little pieces lined up the way you want them.

Using this technique, your Prairie Points will be evenly spaced and perfectly lined up - Guaranteed!

And you decide how large or small to make them. No frustration or complicate math in order to make your Prairie Points fit the sides of your quilt!

Want Prairie Points that face inside your quilt? You can have that, too. In a quick 37 minutes, you'll see exactly how to cut and fold the fabric and space your points to add interest to a quilt with wide borders.

binding with curves
Binding any quilt with curves will be easy, and you'll know how to measure and mark the curves on the sides of your quilt.

Have you ever shied away from a quilt because it had curved edges?

Or maybe you finished a quilt and thought it would be perfect with curved edges, but you just didn't know how to measure and mark the sides - let alone face the challenge of making and sewing binding onto the curves of your quilt.

Shy away no more!

Using the techniques in this 48 minute video, you will go out of your way to finish a quilt with curved edges.

Go ahead, make one of those Dresden Plate quilts with the fan-edges. It will be simple to finish.

Or, take a Ghostwalk quilt block and create curved edges to continue the curvy look throughout the entire quilt. You'll finish that quilt in the snap of your fingers.

Quilting daughter, Stephanie, will be relieved to be able to watch her TV or computer for a bried 35 minutes in order to know everything she needs to know about adding binding to the inside and outside corners of my Tumbling Blocks quilt.

And, those are just a few of the techniques you will learn in The Creative Binding Techniques DVD Quilting Mentor.

You see, each one of these techniques is contained on a single disc. Sit down with your notepad and watch them one after another to get ideas for your Creative Binding, or pop each one into your DVD player or computer just when you need it - when you have the quilt ready to finish.

Either way, you can watch them as many times as you need to in order to get that perfect binding.

Specifically, you will see how to make:

how to bind a quilt Double fold straight grain binding. Much the same as double fold bias binding, but there are some differences. You will see how to miter the corners and stitch the binding on your quilt so it is smooth and the corners are perfect.

how to bind a quilt French Fold binding with blunt edges. Unlock the mystery of adding double fold binding to one side of your quilt at a time. No mitered corners, no matching - just beautiful binding, perfectly finished.

This method works on any quilt that has "inside" corners and "outside" corners. A few select tips, and your corners will be beautiful and your quilt binding perfect.

And as a special bonus, you get separate instructions for cutting the bias strips and sewing them together to make a continuous double fold bias strip for your binding. This method can also be used to make straight-grain binding.

I don't really understand what do you say because I don't speak a fluent english), but your movements explain as well.

" (I'd like to listen to you that talk in italian ^_^) I've bought The Ultimate How to Bind a Quilt DVD Mentor, and I'm very happy because I've finally understood the procedure and I hope as soon as well to try this one.

"Hi Penny,

" Letting you know, "I love the How to Bind a Quilt DVD Mentor." What I love the most is I can follow along with the DVD as I am working on my project. The instructions are very clear and easy to follow. I have been sewing since I was in the 9th grade 35 years ago, but have only been quilting the last couple of years since I
no longer work outside the home. So anything that shows the fastest and easiest way to get the job done and still look nice, as I am a perfectionist, is the way to go.

"I am looking forward to the Advanced How to Bind a Quilt DVD Mentor. I have plans for a project in the near future with curves and possibly prairie points. So I feel with the Advanced How to Bind a Quilt DVD Mentor a big part of my project is already a done deal.

"I would recommend the How to Bind a Quilt DVD Mentor to anyone, especially anyone who is wanting to take their sewing talents to a whole new experience."

Once you see this technique, your corners will be perfect and your quilt will look like a professional finished it. Easy, No fuss. No lumps. (Disc 1 - "Double Fold Straight Grain Binding")

(Bonus Disc 1 - "Cutting Fabric and Making Bias Binding Strips")

how to bind a quilt Learn how sew the edges straight so your quilt does not ripple, and your finished quilt looks like a professional sewed it, not all sloppy like an amateur. The key is in how you feed your quilt through the machine and even the presser foot you use. You will see my simple techniques for keeping the edges lined up, preventing that little bubble at the front of the presser foot, and making sure that the edge of the binding stays smooth and doesn't get those ripples making it look like a running stream. (Disc 1 - "Double Fold Straight Grain Binding")

how to bind a quilt Learn my inside secret for cutting binding so the edges match perfectly every time, and the width of the binding is exact. What else can I say? Nowhere else have I seen this demonstrated, yet it seems the most obvious way to get the width perfect, and your strips are less likely to stretch as you fold and iron them. No more cutting tubes of fabric with your scissors. (Bonus Disc 1 - "Cutting Fabric and Making Bias Binding Strips") This tip alone could be worth your entire investment in this DVD Mentor.

In this two-step process you will have beautiful binding that is sewn completely by machine, and you won't be dealing with mitered corners, either.

What’s the cost to put Me on Your Quilting Team?

By now you may be wondering about the cost of these valuable resources.

Well, put it this way. 

If you hired me to consult with you to cover all of the points of how to bind a quilt using each of these 7 different techniques, it would run in the neighborhood of 14-28 hours, including special time showing you how to cut the binding and sew the strips together.  Currently folks are paying me $198 per hour for consulting, that would set you back at least $2,772 – and that doesn’t count travel or telephone expenses.  Plus at the end of that time, your head would be spinning, your notes would be flying, and you would just have pieces of paper to refer to.

When you invest in The Creative Binding Techniques DVD Quilting Mentor, you get 7 DVDs showing how to bind a quilt using different techniques that you can look at whenever you want, and as many times as you want. No note-taking required. Just pop in the DVD, sit back and watch. Rewind or skip over the parts you are confident with - your choice. And right in the comfort of your home.

Or you could spend $60-$70 for some quilting books, plus $20-$30 each for some books with tips about how to bind a quilt and then try to figure it all out yourself.  But, then, we've already tried that, haven't we?

Or you could spend hours on the internet collecting all of those free and incomplete instructions that will confuse you and waste your time and fabric. Who needs that?

Remember, though, it’s taken me more than 28 years of making all different kinds of quilts, plus an investment of thousands, of dollars to sort through all of the clutter of information and give you only the best.  And I know you want to get to the heart of binding your quilts and bypass all of that torture and unnecessary expense. 

Maybe you have already made a bunch of quilts, made some fantastic binding, and think you have seen everything already and can figure it out yourself.  Maybe, but if you are anything like I am, every time I pick up a quilting book or magazine, I learn something new from just one little article or picture.  Just imagine what you could learn from 81 pages of quilting instruction and 3 plus hours of live quilting on DVD. 

Every quilter has unique shortcuts and techniques that she has developed over time. The big difference is that I am happy to share mine! Not all quilters are. And because I am sewing exactly the way I sew when the camera is off, you get every inside tip and technique I have.

The thing is, this information is so valuable it could make the difference between your finishing a quilt and having an unfinished quilt sitting on your closet shelf.

You deserve this information that will make finishing your quilts much easier and more interesting. After all, think of the quilts you could make for your holiday gifts that will please your friends and impress your family with your creativity while saving money by using the fabric in your stash - or even finishing some quilts that have been folded on your shelf just waiting for the right binding.

As you are getting ready to bind your quilt, do you wonder how much binding you will need, and how to adjust the amount if your quilt is a size other than the one in the pattern?

Bonus Gift #5 – Value $39.97
Reversible - 2 Color Binding for a Quilt DVD
and Written Instructions

 

In this short DVD, you will see how to add reversible binding to your quilt - the front of the quilt will have one color of fabric and the back will have a different color.

I'll admit that when I got the instructions for this, I was skeptical. And even reading through the instructions, I thought I would have to make some adjustments. But, following the very simple instructions, this binding will be mitered and perfect.

This Gift alone is a $39.97 value and it’s yours free with your order of The Creative Binding Techniques DVD Quilting Mentor.
