Add "Wow" to your next quilt with an amazing, neat finish. Learn how to use lace, prairie points, petals, ruffles, faux piping, scallops and more.

"This guide to binding is absolutely fantastic! Marci's instructions are super clear, thorough, and precise, and the illustrations are wonderfully detailed. Sometimes a quilt just needs that extra-special binding, and with 25 different styles to choose from, this book has you covered. It's packed with helpful tips, so I highly recommend reading it from start to finish. For instance, Marci explains exactly why mitered binding corners might turn out rounded or overly pointy--and how to fix that! One of my favorite tips (on page 60) suggests sewing the binding to the back with big, visible stitches. Such a clever idea--why didn't I think of that? All in all, the Quilt Binding Bible is an incredibly handy resource to have in your quilting toolkit!" - Becky Goldsmith-- "Becky Goldsmith of Piece O' Cake Designs"
