The Decorative Threads Experience

Thread is no longer a ‘Plain Jane’ necessity - it’s now available in many luscious colors and types. Steering your

Is binding the quilt your least favorite part?  Bindings and piping are a snap with this no-fail completely machine-stitched method.  In this class you will be making a sample to take home to keep as a ‘how to’ example for your own quilts. Binding will never be the same again!
