To soak it all in, you can watch them over and over again for free! Now that I've trimmed my HST to the correct size using a…

The piano key border has a

I don't know about you but because I quilt on a sit- down machine and start quilting in the center, by the time I get to the borders I just want to be done! I just want to stipple some all-over design and get that quilt finished. At the Springville Quilt show (now on display at the Springville Art Museum in Springville, Utah), I really noticed some extraordinary quilting on the borders of the quilts. It has inspired me to want to do MUCH better! I am not much of a quilt marker - I'm kind of…
