Professional Quilt Edge: Finishing your Quilt with Grace Errea (MV)

Some quilts need something on the edge--perhaps a border or two--to support and accentuate the designs. Others just want to end--no borders or bindings.
In this class, we will discuss the design principles of edging your textile piece as we learn how to create:
1) Perfect 3-dimensional flanges paired with borders that emphasize the design; or
2) Bindingless, edging for those quilts that just need nothing more than a clean finish (the envelope technique).
Grace will show you how to ensure an amazing, clean, and professional border or bindingless finish. you will learn all the tricks to create perfect 3-D flanges, perfect corners, edges that hang perfectly, and quilts with a professional finish.
