Ultimate quilt binding tutorial with Jenny Doan

Quilting is so much fun hen you have a basic grasp of all the best methods to complete all the steps necessary for the construction of your quilt properly. As all of you quilters know there are always more ways to do something than the one way we learned to do it. It’s always good in my opinion to look at all the star quilters and check out their favorite methods because you can guarantee they will be tried and true. Of all the quilting personalities on Youtube, no star shines brighter than Jenny Doan from the great state of Missouri. When Jenny teaches us how to make the Kansas City Star quilt block, you can bet your boots it’s the real deal because Jenny herself is a Kansas City Star in my books! In this excellent tutorial, Jenny teaches us how she makes her own quilt binding by cutting two and a half inch strips then sewing them together on a diagonal. Then she guides us step by step on the best way to attach the binding and how to finish the last details by hand.

Materials:

1/2 to 1 yard of fabric (to cut strips for the binding)
A sewing machine
Thread
A handheld needle (for last details)

Directions:

First, you will learn how Jenny makes her binding by cutting 2 1/2 inch strips and ironing them in half, then sewing together with a diagonal machine stitch.
