Fancyfoot recently posted a wonderful tutorial on curved bindinding. She posted it when she made the Fish in the Oven mit pot holder. I wasn't able to find it for you, though. I know the tutorial is on the Sharon Schambers website, if you care to search it. I thought it was very helpful. Nita

If you do decide to cut a bias binding, it would also help if you press the binding in a curve before applying it.

Another help is to use your walking foot when attaching the binding. Also sliding a wire inside the binding (with a buttonhole so it could be remove foe cleaning) would give the circle body. The piece is just beautiful! :lol:

In one of my books, the lady had a really odd ( but cool) curvy shape to one of her wall hangings...She had attached the whole thing to foamcore board= easily hung- kept its shape - and able to prop it , say on a fire place mantel instead of hanging - easily moved to diff locations..I thought it was pretty cool

I made a cirlce bargello wall hanging and they actually tell you to put a sleeve in it that is rather large (abut 1/3 of the wall hanging) and put a piece of cardboard in it to keep it stiff. I did but it makes it tough to store. As for the binding, bias binding is the way to go. It will lay the best when finished, it has just the right amount of stretch for the curves.
