Radian describes the plane angle subtended by a circular arc as the length of the arc divided by the radius of the arc. One radian is the angle subtended at the center of a circle by an arc that is equal in length to the radius of the circle.
The Timepiece Quilt used in this tutorial measures 56 inches by 70 inches, but this method can be used on any size quilt. 1  Step 1: Lay your quilt on a bed, table or other flat surface. 2  Step 2: Fold the lower right corner up toward the center of the quilt making sure the fold is on the bias.
Make sure the quilt is pushed all the way into the binding, but just barely. Let it ride in there easily, not pulled tight or stretched to one side or the other. Sew the binding on along the first edge of the quilt, sewing all the way to the bottom edge. Backstitch and clip your threads. Check the back-the bottom stitching should look nearly the same as the top. Remove the quilt from the machine.
