Love your no- nonsense method of teaching and explaining things simply and without drama. By that I mean the way some quilters/sewers caution too much that this or that can happen and it sounds catastrophic. You give scenarios of things that could go wrong, but it's very serene and you let us know some things don't matter, or that it's fixable. Most of us watching all these quilting videos are new to sewing, rusty, still learning or insecure about our sewing. It helps when the teacher is more matter-of- fact than cautious. Thank you.

It is difficult for me to hand sew on the binding I prefer to sew on the machine, but even that pulling and tugging wears out my hands and fingers (arthritis). I'm trying that glue trick.

Grest advice. I probably learned in a quilting class years ago to lay the thread on the fabric as Natalie showed vs the spool. Now I work at a big box store and show the thread on the fabric to customers when they are torn on thread color.

I have done this with potholders, and getting the last bit of binding sewn to the beginning bit is actually a little harder than it is on a larger piece - just a heads up... (especially with potholder batting often being stiffer than "normal" quilt batting and usually a tighter/more dense quilt pattern).

This was great! That flange binding looks terrific and is so easy. I like the tip about the glue. It certainly looks easier than clips or pins (which always end up giving me pokes!). It also seems more sensible to stitch the binding to the back and flip to the front. You could do this with ordinary binding too (though you wouldn't have the nice flange). It would be great to have a tip sheet for this that we could print out. Love Natalie's quiet teaching style!
