I feel the same way. I took the class at the LQS and watched the online videos but I just can't understand the part where the binding strip ends meet. I even had hubby watch the online videos and try to help me. Nothing.
During my binding class at the LQS I sewed the front first and didn't know you were supposed to do back first. I was so frustrated about how it turned out but then my 15 month old son saw it in a grocery bag and now he carries it everywhere and loves it.
