For many years, I made quilted floor blankets for babies. So of course, anything for babies you want to be durable and WASHABLE!!!! I used satin ribbon for my bindings and always stitched it on with a fancy stitch so I didn't have to worry about the possibility of handstitching letting go. It worked great!!!

Thanks Harris...I think the pinning down the ditch is the key part I was missing...I'll try that and I bet it will work out great.

Sandpat, you don't have to pin more than 9 to 12 inches. I pin as I go along and check the back as I stitch up, just in case you have to make adjustments. Good luck!!
