Rose Prairie Quilts and Farm

I like what Julie is doing on her blog, encourages me to put bindings on a small pile of quilts I have in the spare bedroom.  This quilt was  a round robin I was very lucky to be part of and it was because I'm friends with Pam who owns Sager Creek Quilt shop. And she is a close friend to the others who were part of the group. All very talented designers, published quilters.  Talk about being out of my league, at least that's the way I felt but by the end of this robin, I felt better about my own skills. Still not near theirs tho. The other round robin members were; Pam Goggan Elsie Campbell Donna Lynn Thomas Marilyn McSpadden Talk about a lot of talent. Thank you ladies Well back to my quilt Pam Goggans did the quilting and it is spectacular I had fun playing around with the special effects on the photos This picture is my representation of Christmas in July I hope the info I shared on Sunday helped. I know the technique f

For what I'm working on this evening is the binding on a Christmas round robin from a few years back. I thought I would share some of my tricks to how I do my binding. like to use this  Great technique  on my mitered corners. I found this video on YouTube and is how I do mine.  Patrick Lose shows how. Like how they turn out. And I like the Clover small binding clips. Easy to use and hold tightly without falling off. I also like to use quilting thread or Sulky 12 wt thread., single strand. I have less knotting, strong and love the clean look.   Linking up to  Kathy"s Quilt
