Thank you all for your suggestions, I really appreciate your thoughts! I am leaning toward donating rather than cutting them...
This was the third quilt I ever made, and the second one using all quilt-grade cottons. The first one was the one my MIL got (don't ask to see the binding on that one! Sheesh!) Golly, I was just a baby. I've learned SO much in the decades since, and have strived to become a master of bindings! Although I've not done a binding like this one since, I've never forgotten it and how perfectly it finished!
By the photo, it needs a LOT more ties. I didn't know back then how far to space them. But I'll probably just LAQ them, I so dislike tying.
