Thanks so much Lyn

The technique certainly wouln’t suit all quilts but it really makes a difference on modern quilts and wall hangings in particular. The beauty of it is its simplicity.

It really is.

Thank you. It’s far harder to explain than to do!

Thanks Corinne. I have used the technique many times now, even though I don’t mind adding binding in the traditional way.

That is a very good point. Having said that one can always simply replace the binding. Scraps or mismatching binding can be used as it won’t be seen on the front and shouldn’t affect the overall appearance of the front of the quilt. I tend to use the technique for wall hangings where wear and tear are less of an issue but the potential for wear and tear on a quilt that is used is certainly a possibility.

It always happens to me!

Thank you Alison.

I hope it’s a technique that you enjoy doing.

The technique can be used for any size quilt. I’ve used this method on several pieces now. The largest I’ve done so far measures 64″ x 76″.
