The current issue (No 143) of Down Under Quilts magazine contains step-by-step tutorials (with new and improved photos!) of two of my favourite facing finish techniques: Mitred Facing and Wholecloth Facing.
Other useful resources include:
- my listing of online tutorials: Alternative Quilt Finishes;
- My Four Fantastic Quilting Finishes DVD. The DVD sold out very quickly but you can still download the instruction sheets for 4 techniques (binding, facing, pillowcase and satin stitch) from Quilters Companion. Download Instructions 1 / 2 / 3 / 4 / 5;
- my tutorial for continuous mitred binding without bulges; and
- How to Bind a Quilt: 12 NEW Quilt Binding and Finishing Methods for Your Art Quilts. – a free e-book offered by Quilting Arts

Brenda,
Timely reminder on quilt finishes, I’m about to begin working with fabric again (took so long to shake off such a drawn out stay in hospital)and I will be working on small things for now so I will use your finishing tips.
