Default Oops..Got a Little Carried Away....

I was making binding using various lengths of assorted fabric sewn together and when I finally measured it...690" of binding!
Ah, well...I'll have leftovers for something else.

I keep binding like that on a large spool. I needed binding for a Kaffe quilt and purchased a jelly roll. The entire thing is binding. Now I just need to make the quilts.

You'll be glad you did that! You can never have too much binding.

Scrappy quilts look good with scrappy binding.

You are right you won't need any for a bit. Hopefully it coordinates with some of the quilts you are making. I love having extra bindings on hand.
