    I have been studying mitered borders and thought I would not be able to do it. Well, I finally tried it today and it worked. Now if I could only master bindings I would be a truly happy camper.

    I'm with you - I need to learn bindings, too. Congrats on learning something new!

    I smiled when i saw this posting.. I too had a hard time with this one.. My daughter even bought me a tool to use to help me with my diagonal...It still took months.. I have now conquered it and am struggling with other obstacles. lol

    They are fun aren't they? And binding will come easy too after the first one or two.
