    Measure your hanging space and pick a size. Then just work within that size every month. Mine are also sized so I can hang them with an unsharpened pencil. I just put a square folded on the diagonal in each top corner when I do my binding and when the binding is done they're ready to hang.

    Oh, nicely done; be sure to show us the whole year's worth when they are finished.

    Thank you,
    A wall hanging that narrow would still hang properly without batting? I've used the diagonal fold in each corner before. Thx for reminding me.

    They'll look really great! I have a nice space going to the basement that really cries for a long narrow wallhanging. You've given me inspiration Donna

    I usually use Quilter's Dream Poly in my wall hangings because it doesn't get fold lines as bad as cotton battings seem to.
