Joan, you mentioned your binding is one long strip. Did you get more fabric and cut a new strip or did you seam your selvage to selvage strip cuts into one long strip? The binding is beautiful fabric. You do so well matching fabrics.

I just cut my 2 and a half in. strips...A bunch of them! Then sewed them together into one long strip. I didn't double my strips and sew them together this time. I may replace my binding someday but wanted to use what I had cut and I didn't think I had enough to double it with the strips I wanted to use. As it turned out I didn't have any trouble going around the corners at all.

Me Too. Viewing other's works in progress can be learning opportunities for us newbies.
I still would really really like to see a photo of the basted backing. My DH also wants to see one so he knows what I'm supposed to be accomplishing. He has asked me a few times if what I have done is ok and I have to tell him, I don't know because I have never seen one, but that I don't think it is right yet. He is very supportive and helps me all he can. Please Please Please!!!
