When you make the binding, is it still one long piece folded/ironed in half? If so, how do you manage the raw edges? Or do you make the binding some other way.<br /><br />I've always done the french binding unless I'm pulling the back around and top stitching it down.<br /><br />Glad you had a great weekend!Laurelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17578327597642131518noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3696148984760771156.post-78801373274779022622009-04-19T19:50:00.000-05:002009-04-19T19:50:00.000-05:00LOL!

Well done on getting so much done. Got to admit though I'm with Amanda - I used to hate sewing down the binding by hand - but now I love it. It's a quiet time - just me and the quilt before I move onto the next project/ufo/inspiration.Calidorehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07118238727781108509noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3696148984760771156.post-45434386205366127642009-04-19T08:55:00.000-05:002009-04-19T08:55:00.000-05:00That looks so pretty - and so nearly finished too....That looks so pretty - and so nearly finished too. Isn't it strange, I always enjoy hand stitching the binding down on the back, it's a quiet moment of reflection on the quilt before it's done. And a bit of time to enjoy thinking about the next project before actually launching into it.Amandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00459871513482076398noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3696148984760771156.post-41662984478273006962009-04-19T06:59:00.000-05:002009-04-19T06:59:00.000-05:00Beautiful!
