    Hi everyone

    I went to my Quilting Group tonight (Wed) at my church and another Quilter showed me how to hand sew my binding down. I am using the Blind Stitch to sew my binding down on the back side of my Quilt.

    I will take a picture of what I got done so far sometime over the weekend.

    The Quilting Room at my church has all of the supplies for us Quilters and I found a spool of Dark Green Thread to use for my binding since my binding is dark green too.

    Isn't it great that women will share their knowledge and abilities?

    I didn't know how to do the binding. Someone here on the board posted a tutorial on the ladder stitch. I used it and liked it. http://www.quiltingboard.com/t-40083-1.htm

    I forgot to mention that I am just holding my binding down as I am stitching it down. I'm not using any pins or Binding Clips.

    Thanks everyone.
