Instead of traditional binding you can use prairie points to finish your quilt.
This video demonstrates how easily you can make a strip of continuous prairie points.
As well as quilt binding prairie points look great on pillows, towels, just to name a couple of items.
My book Turnabout Patchwork
“Turnabout Patchwork. Simple quilts with a twist” is all about playing with blocks – making a block, slicing it up, and turning or repositioning the pieces to make a completely different block (sometimes two smaller blocks) to yield endless quilt tops.
- Order Turnabout Patchwork on Amazon
- Order Turnabout Patchwork directly from Martingale (e-book only)

Absolutely amazing. I’ve been quilting for 40 years and never saw anything like this. I’m back to making the prairie points I love. Thanks.

This looks like a great alternative to tedious binding. I would like to see a printed page to refer to when I’m ready to do it.

Genius! Just finished putting prairie points on kitchen curtains the old way. The measuring & spacing drove me bonkers. Wish I’d seen this first!
