for the love of binding!

Binding is something I love to do.  It is that final thing to complete a  quilt...just before the washing...just to see it pucker.  So when my quilter brought me 3 quilts she had finished, I knew just what I was going to spend my next day doing.  Binding!  I used to hand stitch it all until recently I learnt (or should I say became brave enough) to machine stitch it.  It takes some practice but stitching in the ditch looks quite elegant.  This collection by Basic Grey called Little Black Dress 2 is supposed to be shipping out today or tomorrow.  That means by next week I should have it out and ready to talk you into taking it home.  Weird, I know, but people tell me that fabric talks to them. (it talks to me too)

Happy Monday!
