Something Fishy...


I finished putting the binding on the fish quilt this morning. It took far longer to do the binding (about 4 1/2 hours) than it did to make the quilt (about 2 1/2 hours). That's a first. I may need to learn how to do binding by sewing both sides. Do you know how? If not I'll do some investigating... Here are a few pictures. Also, I like you collage. How did you do it?



Also, I used binding clips when putting on my binding. Have you ever used them? They make things really nice because you don't always have to think about getting your binding turned over and even. The ones that I use are really binding clips but I think barrettes would work just as well.

So beautiful! I didn't know about the binding clips! Good to know.

Do you use Picasa? If you do, you can make the collage by highlighting all the pictures you want to include and then click on the button at the bottom of the screen that says collage.
