Default What I learned about binding.

Some years ago I made my DGD two fun quilts for nap and play time. They have been washed countless times. One has frayed binding the other has still good binding. The only difference in the quilts were the pattern choices and the bindings, all the same fabrics and batting. I remember I thought the same bindings would be fine for both quilts but decided to make a different binding for one after I had already sewn the binding on. I just sewed the second binding over the first one. From now on if the quilt will get heavy use I will add a second double fold binding. She's 15 and still uses these quilts!
