I'm pleased with how these came out. The first tricky part was figuring out what to quilt in the middle--then how to work the binding around the corners that aren't 90. I'm learning. I'm learning. :roll: I decided to make the backs something so reversible works if desired. I have quilted scarppy things on my end tables and I turn them now and then for a new look.

I had a pile of tops, now I'm making a pile that just need the bindings sewn on...

And other suggestions?

See the quilting?

The back is the same as the front middle.

Have you ever tried the kind where you sew them back to back and then turn inside out? You can quilt them afterwards and no binding!!

I was tempted for sure! But, I like how they look with the binding. It sure does add extra work though... maybe I'll flip a few and see how I like it. They would be less expensive if I flip them. I wonder what folks would like better? :?: :?: :?:
