The book that made quilting look easy enough for me to want to try it in the first place does explain binding. I just haven't read it since last summer ;-) Hmm, I think I know where I can get some good directions, too.

I was hoping for puckers all over it! What bothers me are the edges, but they can be fixed if they really start to bug me. I actually really like the puckers. I was hoping for puckers all over it!

Don't let the binding scare you - it looks difficult but it is really one of the easiest parts of the quilt (and the mitered corners are quite easy too) With all your other craftiness, I have a feeling you could whip out a binding in no time - the key is to find good directions :) <small>See what Jen has been blogging about: <a href="http://thelangefamily.blogspot.com/2008/09/oak-island-last-day.html" rel="nofollow">Oak Island - Last Day</a></small> it’s beautiful Lisa!
