I have not done this particular UNTHINKABLE, but I've done my share of "What the heck was I thinking?" things. It's a live & learn world!

Whenever a quilt design permits, I stitch in the ditch to where the layers are well secured & then I bind it before I do little fancy stuff within each block. I've never had problems doing it that way & find it easier to work with once the binding is on (and I need every advantage I can get).

BTW, love your GFG quilt.
