I happily spent Friday Night Sew-In curled up with my quilt, watching a movie with my son and sewing on my binding. This morning I got it out and have been working on it some more. I don't do a lot of hand sewing but I do enjoy putting on the binding. I get to use the quilt while I put on the binding so it feels like opening a gift before Christmas! When the quilt is for someone else, I try to put loving thoughts in it as I bind. This quilt is a gift for my self and the love and happiness are in it too.

I totally agree! Hand binding is one of my favorite parts of making a quilt. Love the striped binding!

A great time for reflection for sure. Love the stripey binding and have fun with those slow stitches!

Its always a good feeling to sew on the binding and farewell that project. Love the colours and especially like the fact that the quilt is for yourself
Always love the hand sewing part of adding a binding. I also love the Picnic quilt in your previous post.
Stripes always make a great binding!
