Linda, it's a couch quilt. The quilting has no other requirement than to hold the layers together and look pretty. It does all that and I am happy with it.
Ann, that's the way I've always done it. My Mom taught me to blindstich in the 5th grade. You can search through the blog for more details. The folks who apptaise my quilts usually miss this because my stitches are invisible, my binding lies perfectly flat and is even from one end to the other. I always thought it was supposed to be that way. 😊
I roll my pressed binding strip around an empty toilet roll tube - and it then just unwinds off the roll as I sew it on - keeps it tidy and I find it easier than a clip. Looking forward to seeing the finished quilts.

I would say soothing. :=)
I love seeing binding on. It's the quilting that I don't care for.

I just noticed you're sewing the binding to the front while I sew it to the back. Interesting.
