  • Have you been following Anna, my daughter in law, as she learns to make a quilt? Well, this is the final video in that series! We both put bindings on our quilts and have two quilts that we are really pleased with! You can see the whole journey here - • Teaching my daughter i...
    Anna's fabric was kindly donated by Spoonflower from a designer called Michelle Parascadalo. My quilt is made up of what I call my Terry Blocks as I was inspired by Terry Rowland - her UA-cam Channel is called just that - Terry Rowland.
    I chose to face my quilt rather than bind it like I showed Anna. I first saw this type of binding on Joe Cunningham's amazing quilts last year at The Festival of Quilts and you can watch his tutorial for facing here

    I love when my husband spits out a quilting term..... I am so proud of his attention to quilts. Long time back, I had 4 friends for a weekend retreat at my house....he kept tabs on everyone's projects. MONTHS later at our quilt show, he went around and found every single ( now finished ) quilt that had the beginnings at our retreat. He then found each friend to compliment them. I will literally be smiling on my deathbed at that precious memory. He ALSO liked the treats and meals that come along with a retreat!!!!
    Lovely quilts, Anna and Kate.

    My husband gets to semi-voluntarily pick up crafting terms too. He helps me baste my quilts and has helped me warp my rigid heddle loom and is a great yarn untangler. He tells me things like “I was next to a lady knitting on the ferry today - she was knitting Continental too” and whatnot. I’ve told him I’m doing him a favor - if he outlives me, he will be immensely popular in the nursing home.
    I intend to make seasonal quilts to go with my seasonal crocheted blankets I’ve made. Go for it, Anna!

      Ironically her mother is so sweet, i like her, she likes me, but i see how she treats her mother too, a bit of a bratty young woman.

I did make fabric crafts and paper crafts, but due to health issues I have had to pause for a while. I never quilted but love the look and the process. So enjoy watching you and hearing your lovely voices. I am fascinated with languages and dialects, we even have many different dialects between the States. I also love to see the relationship between the two of you. So precious! . Seeing the admiration, laughter and love between you. Seeing the patience and understanding. The excitement over the process. Beautiful. So I shall gab a tea (Earl Grey is my favorite) and stick around. I have to see them finished of course. God bless you both.

    I’m with Anna on wanting loads of quilts to choose, I’ve got 14 made so far, and my daughter says she loves the fact that she and guests can go and choose/swap their quilt, it makes the house have a lovely, unique, wholesome feel. I made my first quilt in my late forties, it took me over a year and a half to make, then got hooked and now make 5 or 6 quilts a year, what stops me making more is the expense of good quality quilting cotton fabrics ❤. Loads of my friends say “what do you do with all these quilts? “Some have even called them duvets!

    Congratulations to both of you, not only for finishing the quilts, but also for sharing your lovely relationship with all of us. You are showing that joy and love abound in your family and that's what this world needs to see. Thank you Kate, for opening your life to us. Thank you Anna, for cheerfully learning and giggling...That's what life is about. Hugs to you both from the Rockies in Canada.

    I make the backing a couple of inches bigger all around than my quilit top. I fold the raw edge under and and bring it around to the top and mitre the corners. So it looks a bit like binding.. Sometimes, if I want the quilt a bit bigger, I add a couple of inches extra all around. So it makes a bit of a border. I have also done it the other way and made the quilt top a bit bigger and folded it back so it looks like it doesn't have any binding. I stitch it all around by hand. I just find it easier than trying to bind my quilts as I don't have a walking foot so always end up with puckers using the machine.

      I like it when I see quilts finished this way, too! I think I know of 5 different ways to finish a quilt--none of them more "correct" than another!

    It is such a joy to sit here on the lime green sofa and crochet while watching you and Anna finish your quilts. She is so lucky to have you to show her everything about quilting and to make her very own with your help and advice along the way. What great memories you are both making together. It makes me miss sitting beside my Grandmother when I was a young girl and watching her sew and make quilts and brings back all the special memories.

    I have truly loved watching the videos of Anna's quilting journey with her wonderful mother-in-love! I am teaching my 3 granddaughters, all 8 years old, to embroider and quilt. Recently, they have been able to reach the pedal on my sewing machine and can sew solo. I will also teach the two grandsons, now 5 years old, once they get older. My great-grandparents came from Sweden to Washington, D.C., U.S.A., and worked as tailors to 2 U.S. Presidents. They made inaugural suits for Coolidge and Taft. Sewing skipped several generations before reaching me, but I have at least got the grandgirls sewing in our family. Can't wait to see the next series of quilt-making with Kate and Anna!

      I’m working on finishing a quilt that’s been in the works for a very long time. Not quite to the binding stage, but I’m completing the appliqué piece so I can sew the borders on and finish it. Sitting on the lime green couch watching you finish your quilt while working on mine!

    To expand on what Kate said... If my wadding interval is 8-inches. I'll quilt a little closer... maybe 6-inches (depending on my design). Then I'll bind it because now it's safe to wash in the machine. If you wash before binding, your edge will get full of unraveled threads. The binding stops the raveling.
    For me, piecing can take a long time and my fabric gets dusty and it been on the floor several times by the time I bind it, it needs a good wash.
    Once washed, I'm in love with it all over again because it smells fresh and clean! And I'm excited to continue quilting on it.
    This method allows me to revise my quilt design if needed. I've been known to plan a 2" grid only to find a 3" grid will work just as well.
    My other tip for this quilt as you go method is do the 6" grid all over then do the 2" or 3" grid all over, instead of in quadrants or smaller sections.
    By quilting in sections, you have sections that are noticably not completed. By quilting all over, you can stop at any time and your quilt is usable, washable and looks complete. 💖🌞🌵😷

    Anna, here where I live (in the USA), there is a song titled "The Touch of The Master's Hand" by Wayne Watson. It is a song that has a faith filled meaning but, as I'm watching this video, the song kept popping up into the back of my mind. As you are sewing along on your quilt, Kate is guiding you, instructing and encouraging you! I couldn't help but make the parallel that truly, you are touched by the (quilting) master's hand! How blessed we all are, in life, by our teachers and those who take time out of their lives to pass on their skills and knowledge! Bless you, Kate! ❤

    Love seeing your quilts in their final stage. Haven't heard of facing a quilt, but I agree that with that somewhat busy binding and very busy quilt, it's is best as a facing. Anna, your quilt is lovely! You are a fast learner! Good luck with the hexagons!

    I think I need a whole week to read the comments section and relish in the joy it brings. Thank you both for your beautiful spirits. Now to the next journey. Kate I totally agree that facing your quilt was the best way forward. I have been aware of this method for some years. Tthe facing can become a 'feature' in itself rather than just another way of finishing a quilt. Nancy Roelfsena's UA-cam (OnPoint-TV and Quilting with Nancy) channel has two episodes on how she does I highly recommend it. The first one was six years ago in 2018 titled Finishing a Quilt with Facing and the most recent one three years ago titled Facing a Quilt. The facing does not have to be just 2.5 inches it can be any size you want thus adding a totally different element and feature to the backing. It is worth watching and learning how you can improvise it to your own style. May God bless you both and your families and of course the furry ones too.
