    Update on quilt cupping and a thank you to Margo

    This is an update on a past post about a cupping problem I was having with my quilt Red Letter Daze. I thought the problem was with the wool batting or the difference in weight between the middle of the quilt and the border. Margo suggested I rebind it with a bias binding as opposed to a straight cut binding. Well I reluctantly rebound it this weekend with a bias binding (this is the 3rd time I have rebound this quilt!) and I am happy to report it is hanging much much flatter than it was! Thank you Margo!! Also, after Margo suggested using bias binding on my last post, I bound my newest quilt with bias binding and it too is hanging very straight and flat! I am now forever indebted to you, Margo, and I will forever use ONLY bias binding! Thank you!! (I love this forum!!)

    Glad to help, Janet! I haven't received my October (2011) issue of The Quilt Life yet.
    Can you post a photo of your centerfold quilt for me, and those who don't subscribe to the magazine?
    Maybe it will encourage them to start a subscription? http://www.americanquilter.com/tql_mini/

      I received my copy Saturday, and Janet's centerfold is MARVELOUS!!! I had to look at bit to find your alphabet, but I think I'm going to spend a lot more time studying those photos! And, Janet, I think you've definitely hit celebrity status Couldn't happen to a more deserving person! I look forward to seeing more of your quilts.

        Give this a try, Margo. http://viewer.zmags.com/publication/...b#/e04196eb/44 If this doesn't work, you can go to the AQS site (and if you're a member of AQS) you can see it under The Quilt Life - digital issues. The photos were taken by Gregory Case, who I must say, is fabulous at what he does!
