Kweli from African American Fabrics designs fabulous fabric with African American sensibilities. My favorite from her collection on Spoonflower is Bottle Tree, circled in the photo. She explains the folklore behind the bottle tree on her Post: Bottle Tree Fabric – Whimsical Elegance.

Welcome to an exciting quilting journey as this video guides you through the art of machine binding, ensuring a polished finish for your quilting projects. Join us in unraveling the secrets of machine binding mastery with this step-by-step tutorial video.
This machine binding tutorial is hands down the best I’ve come across, and I’ve been avidly watching quilting tutorials for years. The technique of leaving about an 1/8th of an inch of the quilt backing fabric visible during binding application was a revelation! Why didn’t I think of that before? It’s clear how this seemingly simple step can significantly enhance accuracy and overall appearance. Currently, I’m free-motion quilting the last two bordered sides of a large quilt, and I’m genuinely excited about the binding process
Thanks for this shout out. I am just seeing it. YES!! The Bottle Tree Fabric is a tue fav among quilters and sewers. I even made myself a cute little Summer dress with this fabric.
My pleasure Kweli. I am a huge fan of all your fabric, not just The Bottle Tree! –Scarlett
