    Default Oops..Got a Little Carried Away....

    I was making binding using various lengths of assorted fabric sewn together and when I finally measured it...690" of binding!
    Ah, well...I'll have leftovers for something else.

    I keep binding like that on a large spool. I needed binding for a Kaffe quilt and purchased a jelly roll. The entire thing is binding. Now I just need to make the quilts.

    You'll be glad you did that! You can never have too much binding.

    Scrappy quilts look good with scrappy binding.

    I love the look of scrappy binding myself.

    No, no, no! Never to much, you were just pre-planning! Tee-Hee-Hee. Yeah Watson!

    You are right you won't need any for a bit. Hopefully it coordinates with some of the quilts you are making. I love having extra bindings on hand.
