Thank you, Sewjoyce. You made me feel better just by being there.
I'm going to go to Joann's and get either the 1" fabric binding or 1"
grograin ribbon and hand sew it on over the "binding" I think the muslin that we used as a backing (from Joann's) was too loosly woven and very light weight almost like a batiste for curtains. Another lesson learned.
I know that lessons learned the hard way stay with you the longest, but I'm really tired of learning everything this way. Thank you so much
for your support. I'll take pictures and send them in.
