I'm hand quilting this one and for binding, I will be binding the uneven sides with hexies sewn to each edge hexie and folded to the back and secured to the backing fabric.
Here is the tutorial I found to do this: http://badskirt.blogspot.com/2010/05...ie-quilts.html. The even sides with have the points cut off and be bound with regular binding strips.

Your quilt top is beautiful and I bet quite rewarding feeling. Are you going to hand quilt it? I made one as shown in my avatar and I ran out of the white material I was using. So that is the size that this one will be. Have not measured it as of yet, but I plan on hand quilting it and using it as a throw on lounge on front deck for décor. Would you ever make another English paper piecing project? I am hooked on the technique. Thanks for Sharing.
