I'm curious as to how you finished the corners. I'm not very good at mitering, so I usually round out my corners using a saucer as a pattern & ease my binding around the curves.

I cheat. I also can't mitre.

I do two sides, trim, then do the two ends, folding in the excess. Should have shown that on the vid . . .

Ah, the music accompanies the feverish pitch of the creative fire. Your hands have been sculpting chaotic fragments into a whole complete quilt for a month - I feel a drum roll...

[atree3]

you are definitely in tune

Remarkable patience and concentration must be required to do the entire job. Incredible.

I can't take credit for either, since I don't seem to have a choice.

I love putting on the binding on a quilt because I know it will very soon be finished. Have enjoyed every one of your videos Margaret.

Haha.. I'm sorry. I never learn to read the description before I comment.

Baroque :-) What is this music? Or maybe I'm totally wrong when I say that it is baroque.. Hm.. They sing in german so it could be Mozart too.. hm.. Help!?

It's very relaxing watching you working on that with this wonderful music...
