The next art quilt, "Summer's Bounty" to the left, needed nothing to close it in or stop the eye. While I was making this piece I took it to Focus, my fiber art group, to ask their opinion. Judy Simmon's a good friend and fellow fiber artist suggested that I face the quilt. She explained to me that you faced a quilt just as you would face a sleeve in a dress. It worked like a charm and unless there is a reason for me to boarder or bind a quilt I rarely do that any more.
