I often wonder why so many feel that the binding part of the quilt is so difficult. I like that part the best. I stick with the simple 2.5 inch folded in half (not even on the bias). What I really love about it is that once that is sewed on, I'm free to leave my machine and hand stitch at my leisure. The thought of having a finished project pushes me to pick up the stitching often, until I'm done. Then I get to take a picture!
If you go on youtube, there are really great videos on how to do the bindings. I know they helped me a lot.
