I just finished my Batik Squares top. This is only my 2nd quilt. I was really nervous about everything lining up. Any ideas for binding? There is no borders...

You did an excellent job! I love batiks and this sure shows them off well. Hummm, how to finish. Doesn't look like it need any additional borders. I'd bring your backing over to the front and stitch.

WOW!!! Only your 2nd quilt. I can only wish I was that good on my 2nd one. If it was me I would probably use one of the darker colors for the binding. It would sort of be a nice frame around this nice quilt.

Your quilt is gorgeous! If you have leftovers, you could piece your binding from all the fabrics you used in the quilt--I think it would tie everything in together very well!
