I was really happy with How my mystery quilt finished up. and i did another binding tonite with diagonal connections. and even managed to sew the finishing two ends together on the diagonal. i think it helped, that i tend to always undercut the number of strips i need to reach all the way around my quilt. and this time also, i had to cut, and then connect one more strip, and so i got to practice just connecting. and remembered watching a tut a loooonnng time ago about touching and marking where the final ends would connect. it worked like a charm. thx again . love this board.
