If you don’t like doing the binding here are some tips:

1. It is easier to make a straight binding.
2. It does take longer to stitch a scallop binding.
3. Watch Marcy Bakers youtube on how to make the miters in the point of the scallop. Excellent instruction and valuable information.
4. Make a small sample to try before cutting into your quilt to see if you are still interested in making the scallops.

Scallops are usually put on a more “fancy” quilt. The colors and the pattern on this quilt are so very nice, I would just do a straight border.
