Really nice - I love embroidering the bindings now (yeah I consider it cheating) but my hands say thank you! Yours is great!

Lovely quilt. What a nice grandma, making quilts for the grandkid's friends. I hope they don't all get in line waiting for their own quilts! That would keep you busy.

Never thought of using that stitch, it's very neat.

This time I sewed it down on the back, then folded it to the front and did the finish stitch. Love to do it that way! And its sew easy seeing as these are all for the people I love! Luckily my machine enables me to "reverse" my blanket stitch, etc. stitch so I can sew in the ditch and have it go over into the binding.

Thanks!
