Video 4: Squaring Up Your Quilt

As you get ready for binding, it’s important that the quilt is straight. Our fourth video shows how to cut around your quilt making it ready for binding.

A special thank you to Karen Reardon for letting us use her quilt, “Sunshine and Shadows” for the demonstration!

Video 3: Pressing a Seam

June 7, 2010 by Aimee · 2 Comments 

Week 3, and it’s a short video. Not a whole lot of time this week as we were busy with the North Carolina Quilt Symposium. This video shows setting your stitches and how to press out getting a flat seam. I normally use a very hot dry iron. The video has been uploaded to Vimeo (posted below) and YouTube.

Meeting Perfect Points

Aimee shows you how to get perfect matching seams.

You may notice that I’m using Vimeo for this video. Vimeo is similar to YouTube, but seems to handle HD videos more easily. I’ve posted to YouTube also, but the audio gets out of sync at the end.

Be sure to watch ’til the end … I added a little outtake :-) .
