I had the binding made but wanted to get them sewn by machine before going to Sunriver. I'm sewing away and for some reason something didn't seem right, but I couldn't put my finger on it.....until about 1/2 way through the second binding I realized I was sewing the binding on the back instead of the front. I stopped and had a good laugh at myself, wondering how many bindings I've sewn on. I figured it was too many to call myself a beginner:) I kept sewing and just made sure to hand stitch it down very nicely to the front.
This was a block swap my small group did. We made 2 blocks, signed one and sent them to the other group members.
Kathy did an awesome job quilting this.
Sounds like something I would do! Oh how I love that quilt!
ReplyDeleteYou have a chance for a completely machine-sewed binding. Use invisible thread and a zig-zag stitch.
ReplyDeleteI really like your new quilt. That's funny about your binding. :-)
ReplyDeleteHave I ever said I love bubblegum pink quilts? Because I really do! Another beautiful quilt.
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful quilt!
ReplyDeleteAgreed: Kat is an awesome quilter. And it is a GREAT quilt!
ReplyDeleteLovely quilt! You have used a wonderful assortment of pinks! What a great block swap.
ReplyDeleteYou have so many gorgeous quilts that you trot out. Love this one. I have done a binding like that deliberately, I think it was to get it right for a border print. I think the quilting on this quilt is wonderful.
ReplyDeleteLove it. I've always like signature quilts. The quilting she did is beautiful.
