Binding Services

Would you rather be making quilts instead of binding them? Well, good news for you, I love binding quilts!

You can have me put that final binding touch on your quilt. This allows you to use or give your quilt as a gift as soon as you get it back.

Not able to bind your newly longarmed quilt right away? You’ll love the Square & Serge service which saves you the time of trimming and keeps all of those pesky threads under control while your quilt waits for you.

Here is how my binding process works:

  • You send in the proper amount of quilting cotton fabric for binding your quilt. This chart, by Geeky Bobbin, is a great way to find your binding fabric requirements.

  • I will hand cut the proper amount of 2.5” straight grain binding strips for your quilt. Then join all of the strips with mitered seams for the least amount of bulk. Any extra fabric is returned to you.

  • I trim and square your quilt at the quilt top edge only. This means that if your quilt has any details, such as star points, at the edge of your quilt they may get “cut off” by some of the binding.

  • All 4 quilt corners are mitered finished for a neat, clean look.

    Here are different binding services I offer:

  • Square & Serge- After the quilting is completed, I will square up your quilt and serge the edges. It is the perfect way to prevent fraying and keep your edges tidy while adding your binding. $0.10/linear inch

  • Front Only Binding Prep- I square and serge the edges of your quilt. I then make and attach your binding to the front of your quilt only. This allows for you to hand stitch the final binding down yourself. $0.15/ linear inch

  • Machine Stitch Binding- I make and attach your binding. Then machine stitch your final binding onto the front of your quilt with the best blending thread color. $0.20/ linear inch

  • Invisible Hand Stitch Binding- I make and attach your binding. Then hand stitch your final binding onto the back of your quilt with blending thread for an almost invisible finish. $0.30/linear inch

  • Big Stitch Binding- I make and attaching your binding. Then using the Big Stitch Binding method, I hand stitch down the binding using Perle Cotton Thread for a charming, finished edge. $0.30/linear inch
