How to Add Facing to a Quilt Part 1

Learn how to face your quilt rather than binding the edges. You know that I hate to bind my quilts (but I do it if I really have to!) and I've found a way to avoid this: facing my quilts. In this video tutorial (based on Robbi Joy Eklow's tutorial at weallsew.com/make-quilt-facing/), I'll take you step-by-step through this process so you can try this easy technique for your next quilt project.
