So, I squared it up, cut the binding, and had 3/4's of the binding done on the machine, when I froze. I hadn't quilted it. Good grief. So now it's seam ripper time to take the binding off, then hope that I can still quilt it without messing things up. I'll probably do SID, which sounds safe.
Am I the first to make this mistake??
Yes, I have! And, I have quilted part and sewn on the binding only to realize that I had not quilted the border first. Did not take out the binding and it worked out just fine!
