In this tutorial, I’ll show you two different ways to face your quilt without using traditional binding: the triangle method and the no-triangle method (using straight strips). Quilt facing is a unique binding technique that creates clean, crisp edges without the visible binding, and I’ll walk you through both methods step by step.
In this video, I’ll demonstrate how each method works, the results you can expect, and share my experience using Valori Wells' Grace Fabric Collection on my Journey Quilt.
What you’ll learn in this video:
🔹 The difference between quilt facing and traditional quilt binding
🔹 How to use the triangle method for quilt facing
🔹 How to face your quilt with straight strips (no triangles!)
🔹 Tips for using fabric collections like Grace Fabric for quilt-facing projects
🔹 How to finish your quilt beautifully without borders
🔹 Insights into the Journey Quilt project and my design process 🧶🎨
