I'm just learning to machine bind and it turned out great for me. So much easier than trying to catch the edge on the back!

If you put this for sale, you can surely say goodbye to it. I like your video. I just tried quilting with my walking foot for the first time yesterday, and I love it. It just might lure me away from FMQ (although I really hope not for good), but your wavy lines seem like the best of both types of quilting.

I've used it a few times to match a backing and it really does work and doesn't clog the needle (which I was afraid of.) I like your fabric choice for the binding, too. I would never want to wish your quilts don't sell, but if you love this one...Karen @runsewfunhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09975401086034999869noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6222010192421604268.post-70467109968480082192015-06-26T17:15:26.125-04:002015-06-26T17:15:26.125-04:00I love your finish, the colors are so pretty!

Love how the grey thread looks good with every color. <br />I did a binding like that and it definitely helped a lot to glue baste it to the back first, before the final stitch in the ditch from the front. <br />I can't believe you never kept a quilt for yourself Lorna.
