not sure I like it now

Thanks...=)
That is the sad part. I found and fell in love with this on ebay and I can't match the dark to make binding... Hope I learned a lesson... Don't even look at ebay...
Thanks for your suggestion... =)

Bound and determined to figure something out...

green huh? I appreciate that thought...
I can't seem move forward right now... I may discard the light purple plaid sashing now. Boy! I am not good at this... or my perfectionist paralyses me...

Cut a couple and just lay them over the current cornerstones and stand back and see if you like it before any unsewing!

Ok... Thank you... I plan to use the dark as the cornerstone and reach the ebay store I bought from and try to get enough of the dark fabric for binding then I think I will be content to like it.
Thanks Friends!
