How to add a facing to a small quilt.
I just found another video and way of doing this. It is a simplified version of what Shirley does - just the same effect but so much less complicated! You could make the facing wider and you could use a single layer. And I like that you could stitch fully to the facing on two sides either short or long then you can fold it over then add your other sides. Obviously, two whole sides won't be stitched - you could partially stitch them as Shirley does, but having complete stitching on two sides might help make the corners sit better.

This link below is a facebook link to one way of doing it by making a frame facing.

Another version from Janome:
And a third way that has double layers of fabric at the corners but both sides have been fully edgestitched to give a crisp turn. No video just instructions:

Which one is best? When I've tried them all I'll come back and comment.
Another one: Kinda same as above...
