Quilt Finished

I've finished the wedding quilt.  In the process, I found a new method for joining the start and finish ends of the binding.   This is an area where I have always had a problem despite learning how at a course I took years ago.  The instructor showed us how to do a nice mitred join with iron on tape but I found it too fiddly and never used it.  I am the queen of anti fiddly!  

 



   Here is a link to the method I used:  http://www.mccallsquilting.com/mccallsquilting/articles/Quilt_Binding___Joining_the_Ends

 

It is simple and quick with only marking, cutting and sewing involved.  One hint:  be careful that you cut one end at the opposite angle from the other.  Guess how I know that?

 

A photo of the quilt is below as well as a photo I took one evening.
