Binding Made Easy

You’ve just finished your first quilt! The last step in the process is the finishing touch — binding! Join us in the classroom to construct a basic, but cute table runner that showcases a favourite fabric; then learn the tips to successfully bind and you’ll go home with a runner to proudly display!
