Canadian expat in Mexico City
My name is Heather; I have lived in MC for a long time. I learned to quilt many years ago from a French woman when I lived in Brussels. I left quilting behind when I returned to Mexico and decided to take it up again 10 years later. How things have changed! I learned rotary replaced my X-ray patterns; no more quilt as you go; everything seemed so much easier. I have found a wonderful place to learn new techniques but mostly I work at home. I like to have several projects on the go; sometimes I feel like hand quilting and others like cutting or sewing. Right now I am putting the binding on a smaller quilt - a 70x70 inch and would like some advice on the width of the binding. I did a thinner binding on an earlier quilt and not sure I liked it as much as the wider one. Any ideas on how wide a binding should be? Does it depend on the size of the quilt or merely personal taste?
