I did two things different with the binding. First I did not press it in half. I think I have more control with it pressed in half. Second I zig zaged fusible thread on the edge and back of the binding seam. I liked doing that, except after I fused I couldn't get it to wrap quite as tight to the back. I'll always press in half and I will try the fusible thread again.

What a beautiful hanging, great job, love the tissue lame' Our country church has been added onto so the old windows were boarded up and covered with curtains. Lately they took the curtains down and have been backed with pretty wood and have sconces centered on them. Pretty but I would love to make stained glass quilts to hang and change during the year. Was it difficult to make and how much trouble was the bias tape? The fusable thread might be a winner to help with that part of it. Again, beautiful. Take a picture when it is hung inside the church. Blessings :D

Actually it was easy to make, just a took a little time, bc you can only do one section at a time. The bias tape also, had to be done once piece at a time in order to cover the ends. The pattern was well written and easy to follow.
