My first ever continuous binding!

What do you think of this neat, mitered corner?

My quilting friend Peggy showed me how to sew a continuous binding on a quilt, which miters on the topside and underside of each corner. Thanks, Peggy!

This is my first try, and it’s much quicker than my old binding method. It went pretty well, though I may not show you every single corner up close and personal. Peggy prefers a narrow binding, but I like mine to be wide enough to frame the wall hanging.

After sewing on, taking off, rearranging, and resewing several motifs, the lower right corner of my Valentine quilt may be finished.
