Learn My Machine Binding Method!
I’ve been binding my quilts on the machine for more than 20 years with a technique that’s fast, beautiful and sturdy.
Are you free on Saturday?
Join me for Mock-Hand Binding by Machine, a live class with me, Diane Harris from Stash Bandit, from 9 am to 12 pm Saturday, Dec. 12.
The fee is $35.
(Yes, this will be offered again and next time it won’t be so early for people on Pacific time.)
Go straight to registration
or read on for details.
This all-machine technique imitates a binding sewn down by hand, but in a fraction of the time. I’ve been binding my quilts with this method since the 90s so I know the tricks to make it work along with the pitfalls to avoid.
PLEASE NOTE: It’s best if your sewing machine has a blind hemstitch, but you can make a regular zigzag work if need be. I’ll also show you other binding secrets to make your quilt look its best!
I have 36 years of quiltmaking experience along with many years of teaching. From beginners to pros, everyone in the US* is welcome in this class, which will be a live demonstration of the technique along with written instructions and photographs in the handouts. You’ll leave with everything you need to start binding your quilts quickly and beautifully. Let’s do it!
*The platform I’m using on Zoom is still in Beta (testing) mode and is limited to US users right now. Word is that it will open to international registrants at some point before long.

Do you have another binding class scheduled? I’m so sad I missed this one!

Hi Sally, no worries, I will definitely hold another binding class. Yesterday’s was a bit of a trial run so I didn’t do much publicity but it went well and I will probably hold one in January or February. I will look forward to seeing you in a class when it works out for you! Thanks for your interest!
