hey, thanks y'all!!! I did take another stab at it this am, after reviewing your very thoughtful suggestions, and viewing some tutorials. the binding on this first placemat is a pitiful sight! however, first binding project accomplished and now on to the other three placemats and their binding. practice, practice, practice :)

Hello! Welcome from MS! From another beginner, you'll find tons of great help herel I'm impressed that you tackled binding so quickly. I put it off forever, but it's not so scary now! Good luck with the placemats! Love the colors and quilting!

I feel your pain and I'm glad you took another try at the binding. I just send 4 placemats to my sister, Christmas presents that were late because I was afraid of the binding. I finally just took the bull by the horns and bound those suckers! They turned out great. Sis (and her semi-snobbish husband) loved them. She called yesterday and said someone else really loved them too. Fat Katherine, her cat had taken them over!
