Fantastic quilt, I been sewing at the age of 8. My mom taught me and I been quilting for over 20, and use to make my wife's clothes. Thanks for sharing 😊

Facing, rather than binding really makes these art quilts! What a great idea. Thank you for sharing your technique and your magnificent quilt.

This is an awesome quilt. Great work of art.

Kate was right this is very coo!

I came on Kate’s recommendation but I also own one of your Craftsy classes Joe. 😁 I’m glad I found you on KZread.

Came over from Kate’s love the binding. Your quilts are a work of art.

Recommended by Kate at The Last Homely House. Useful technique!

I like this very much. Also your quilts are just amazing

It's nice to 'come by', thanks

Great tutorial, love this idea!

Came from Kate’s recommendation. I like your facing technique.

I remember Joe from Kate talking to him at the quilt show. Thank you for this facing tutorial.

Thank you for sharing, love it!

7:56 What a wonderful finish. I have just completed a hexagon English paper piece quilt and was struggling with how to complete the edges as I didn’t want to compromise the pattern. I will use the facing technique which you demonstrated beautifully.

Found you through Kate at the Last Homely House😁

Me as well this morning.

Thank you. I wanted to learn this technique, and you have taught me well.

Popping over from Kate at The Last Homely House. Ive been quilting for decades, and can’t believe I’ve never seen the facing technique. I think I’m going to give it a try on my next one. Thank you for sharing your tutorial/technique.

Beautiful!

thank you.

Dude…. I’ve been looking for new binding/edge work ideas. You never disappoint. Thanks for the inspiration.!

Often wondered about how facings were put on 🤔 Love the clean lines it creates on your wonderful quilts 😃 Great explanation Joe 👏👏🇬🇧

Love your quilt, Joe! I like using a binding on the back only, it gives the quilt a clean and modern vibe.

❤ I really like it! ❤

I'll have to give this a go! Looks better than the facing with triangles in the corner on the backside.

TFS, I will have to try this on one of my quilts.

Joe, love your quilt. I have a quilt in progress and am going to try your method. Thank you!

Fantastic! Today I am going to try this method on two doll quilts for my granddaughter's. I've been wanting to try this. Thanks Joe! Happy stitching, Susy from San Diego.

Like your guitar keeping you company.

Fabulous Art pieces thank you for all you do!

Just beautiful! Love your work💕🌸

Another fascinating quilt! The only similarity yours have with mine is the facing; I use a similar method. 😉🙃😄

How do you hang your quilts with no visible hardware? Is a sleeve necessary with smaller pieces? Thank you for your contemporary inspiration!

I make the sleeve 1” short of each side so the hanging rod can hide.

Beautiful 😊❤️

❤❤beautiful❤❤

I love facing as a technique, but isn't it like borders, opposite sides should measure the same, and be pinned such that the ends are pinned first then the middle, with everything in between eased? To prevent rippling.

Excellent observation. Yes, that is how to do it correctly.
