Sorry - can't find a picture of it - but it is THE favorite couch cover at my daughter's home!
T-shirt cotton binding?? That's something I never would have thought of. I'm a little new so I've only domed basic (probobly too thin for a beginner) binding on potholders and quilt birth. I'm really scared if stretchy knits, but I know I saw a million adorable tee shirt prints in the baby section at the thrift store. How does it work? Is it harder than standard quilt fabric? Why did you choose it?
