You're the only person I've seen who has videoed how to use a 3D flange binding. I have used it a few times now and love it. I've just come to see if anyone has done a double flange but alas, none found as yet but I'm about to give it a go lol.
I made a lap quilt several years ago with a scallop edge and it was the scariest thing ever! Thanks for taking a scary, yet beautiful application and making it do-able. Freezer paper is magic!
Hi Laura, I was very pleased to find this tutorial because you demonstrated how to add flange to a centre piece. I had asked you a question about how the corners were done after watching a tutorial about adding a flange. Lo and behold - I now have a demonstrated answer together with your reply to me . I love how you work out the scalloped edge for the runner and the Easter quilt. Thank you and keep safe in this time of social isolation.
Thank You SO much. I’d been wanting to do a scalloped edge, but I wasn’t sure how to go about doing the binding. I’d made a template on some joined cardstock paper, with one side a Scallop edge, and the other side a Wavy edge.. so I can trace whichever I want. I Love it!
I love flanges as they make a quick and easy "border" of a contrasting color. Those gentle scallops and your clear instructions of folding, cutting, and tracing using the freezer paper so one can iron on the pattern vs. pinning it down makes it look so appealing. Thanks! On another topic - the filming and editing of your videos. I'm always amazed at the consistency of your voice's volume in the many steps of assembly. I know from the interview Leah Day did of you that you do it all - in that you have a LOT of specifically placed lights set up (and maybe several microphones?) before you sew, film, edit, and download(?) it to YT. And you post them twice a week. Where DO you find the time to travel for teaching engagements or quilt retreats? Or have you found some secret to only get a couple of hours of sleep each night and still stay healthy, bright and cheerful? You are one very talented lady.
I have lots of lights and I film in a very quite room also I have a great husband who likes to cook and is happy to help me so that I can fin the time:)
Thanks I don’t need to buy a pattern or the precut scallop ! I was thinking to try drawing on parchment paper ! But you have done all the work ! Great explaining ! Wax paper is cheap too!
Thank you Laura for showing us how to do the scallops. I've been wanting to try this for some time. Now you've made it really easy. I don't have to order the scallop ruler either. I made 2 pillow shams that I wanted scalloped edges on. Now will try this. I will post a photo when they are finished. Thanks again and God Bless.
THANK YOU !!! Such a perfect tutorial.... with an experienced professional seamstress. I've sewn for year's ...& like to watch equal or better seamstresses... Been looking for soft curved flange..👍👍👍👍 found it !
You always have just the tutorial I need! I made a wall quilt 69x60 and the border doesn't look right so someone suggested I make it scalloped. THANK YOU!
Thank you so much for sharing this. I am doing a baby quilt and wanted to do a scalloped edge but wasn't sure how to go about it. You are amazing!!!!!!
Thanks for showing how to do a scalloped border, tried it before with a ruler, (not good), freezer page looks like it would be better, will get it a try......... Thanks again for a great video........
Thanks for the wonderful video. I always enjoy watching them. I just have one question. Is there a special technique for joining the ends of the bias binding? Dona
It was good that it wasn’t perfect in size to begin with, (opposing directions) so you could show others what to do when there’s does not come out measured perfectly on both opposite sides. Thanks.
I like to cut my binding at 2 1/4" but you can also use 2 1/2". I fold it in half press it, and then stitch it on the quilted item with a quarter inch seam allowance.
