Default Quilt for my friends mother

My friends mother turns 90 in January and she wanted to make a quilt for her. She did all the sewing and I did the quilting and the scalloped edge binding. This is the first scalloped edge I have done and am very pleased the way it turned out. The arthritis in my hands won't let me do hand sewing so I did the binding using my machine. I went very slow and it seems to have turned out okay. It is a very time consuming process and don't know how often I will do this again!

Your scalloped edge binding looks fabulous. I have never tried to do one.
