Finishing
Press the whole quilt top again and make sure their are no ‘lumpy’ joins, this makes it
easier to quilt.
Sandwich the quilt layers – backing (right side down), then the wadding and quilt top
(right side up)
Baste and quilt as desired. I quilted the original with a loopy all over pattern and
included a few cute little bumble bees ......
Trim the backing and batting back to ¼” bigger all round.
Prepare the binding by joining the 2 ½” strips together using a mitred seam to make
one long piece. Press in half lengthwise and sew – using your walking foot – to the
right side of the quilt top aligning with the raw edges. Follow the diagrams to make
mitred corners.
Trim away the excess batting and backing. I like to leave it a fraction wider than the
quilt top so that the binding is full.
Turn the binding to the back and hand sew in place.
Don’t forget to sew a label on your quilt!
