Finally getting to bind my Fancy Dish Dresden! But I fear it will be a total hand-sewing job! If anyone has hints or suggestions - HELP!!!!!
[ATTACH=CONFIG]564456[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=CONFIG]564457[/ATTACH] I love this quilt and have taken a couple of years (off & on) to make it. Looking so forward to seeing on my brass bed! |
wow, i know there are good tutorials out there on outer and inner curves. lovely so far. Good luck.
|
Bias binding and lots of pinning! Looks like it will be beautiful.
|
Thanks, ladies. I've done scallops before but these are so much more closely spaced! Will re-visit more tutorials!
Its not the sewing to the top, but the fitting it to the back!! Glad I decided not to flip from back to front!! and that it is for ME! |
That is going to be spectacular!
Here are my favorite odd angle binding tutorials: Inside angles: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4VGNcDoI-R8 Outside Angles: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vci9-li3aYU |
Sew slowly using the needle down function so you can manipulate the fabric as you sew. When you fold it to the back, try a few dabs of washable glue stick to help hold the binding until you can hand sew it.
|
the main thing i remember is using a pin to get the correct folding angle. then it works beautifully.
|
Looks like you're half way there and with the suggestions from Tartan and nativetexan you should be good to go. You must show us when finished.
|
What if you made a facing for those difficult areas?
|
I have absolutely Nothing constructive to add, but I really sincerely hope you post a few pics as you complete this. It's a gorgeous hemline!
