The hardest part was finishing the binding BEFORE i washed it! I wanted to see it fluff out so badly! No special technique, this is just through the washer and dryer twice.
Thanks for the update!

Would it need to be bound? ..... could you not just sew around the outside edge a couple of times as you would with those raggy quilts?
