[QUOTE=stillclock;6762736]how do i now sew it down on the back?

i am categorically NOT hand stitching.

darn it.



Major drama going on at our house with DGS moving in. I finally got into my quilting room yesterday and sewed a border to my quilt, mitered the corners, joined the ends and realized that I should have kept it FLAT and mitered the binding. I can't take it all of because I won't have enough material so I may have to work out a way to cut the batting and backing
the size of the front then fold the "border" over to become the binding. Honestly, you would think my mind would stay focused when I sew but it doesn't :-(

I'd take hand stitching the binding to the back any day over what I just did.
