    Hi everyone,

    I have only made one quilt, a rag quilt.

    I hope to start another quilt soon, although I am not quite sure what yet....I am thinking a D9P ?? But, then I remember I have to bind it and I have no idea how to do that at all.

    Is binding as horribly difficult as it looks?? Any suggestions for a newbie who knows very little about quilting so far? (For my rag quilt and I got advice off this wonderful board and from you tube videos, etc.) I'm very much a "newbie"!

    TIA!!

    I learned a lot from the youtube videos when I was first starting out. They are very helpful.

    I feel the same way .... the binding scares me And while I have recently made 3 rag quilts, I do want to learn HOW to do the bindings and quilt it (somehow!!!) Yikes .... learning curves for sure!

    Two secrets learning here....do not iron and use elmers glue....makes it a snap. And once you mast how to miter/turn the corners....it becomes a piece of cake. Not hard and like said before the best part because its the end.
    Yes that is a real picture of my hometown Temecula, California. We feature premiere Wineries, World Class Golf Courses, Pechanga Indian Casino and Hot Air Balloons
