    Default Binding skills

    My wife usually binds, but she has been tied up, so I did all the binding on this one. Not perfect, but finished. I don't think a 15-month-old will mind. What do you think? We do our bindings entirely by machine.

    This is probably the best corner.

    I have a hard time getting the corners matched.

    This is from one of our I-Spy kits. We have posted other quilts like it before, with different quilting and backs.
    We love the monkey back.

    I think it's great! Finished, accomplished, done. That's the best part. :-) Now, time to use!

    Love the monkeys! Great job of binding. I can never get the machine binding to come out correctly on the other side.

    Your right a 15 month old will not look or pick at it. The binding just takes a little figuring out, just like anything to do with quilting. Right? There was a lady on u tube that breaks it down to a science. I don't have it bookmarked right now, but it is way cool the way she does it.

    Looks good to me. That's a great I spy quilt. I see one or two fabrics that I've used.
