I would also call it a sweat shop. I know I could never work in one. I do like the binding gadget thought, just one seam.

If I tried to push my quilts through my domestic machine too fast I would finish up with puckers everywhere. What's the secret? Do they glue the three layers together so they move as one piece?

I tried looking up the binding attachment on Fons and Porter and can't find it. What is it called?
