All the hand quilting is done on Oliver's birthday quilt, so it's time to finish it:
Before I bind it, I have to trim the edges of the excess batting and backing fabric:
This step also allows me to trim off any loose threads on the edge:
Once the quilt is trimmed I machine sew on the binding on the front:
And I hand sew the binding to the backing:
The last thing I do is run a lint collector over the entire quilt to collect any thread bits and batting fuzz:
To see the finished quilt, stop in tomorrow. :)
