Binding and other cool things
Well that’s a nice way to start the day: checking out the Quilting Daily (Quilting Arts/Interweave) email, and there is MY little quilt and a link to their free e-book featuring my article and those of several other quilters!
So here’s a question for all of you: I have wanted for YEARS to write a book called Fine Finishes with my way to do bindings, edge finishes (including facings and all sorts of funky things), and how to display quilts (hanging sleeves, alternative ways to hang and display). Is anyone interested? I may or may not go the traditional submit-to-publisher route, or I might self-publish, even though I am awful about promoting stuff and selling it….. So tell me: should I take the time to write this book? I’ve got most of the samples made since I teach this as a class, would include work by others that I find inspiring in ways to display, and so on…….
And don’t forget to click on the link and get your free e-book!

Go for it! I make all kinds of shapes, not just 90 degree corners. And all hanging sleeves are not created equal.
my 2 cents

Trying to post this again with a different browser…
Yes, please! you teach so thoroughly in words/books (haven’t been taught by you otherwise!)And this is something that would help loads of people. I know I would find it useful. But I also like to recommend this kind of book.
So…in conjunction with coming to teach at Festival of Quilts – hint, hint! where you could sell the books like hot cakes.
