Rhonda, My WH is complete and ready to travel. Add me to your send list

I found a tip on binding here on the QB a few days ago and for the life of me, I cannot find it again. the video showed how to sew off the corner of the binding as you sew it on. Then when you are done go back and snip the corner to the seam and unsew those few stitches on the diagonal then trim off the tiny triangle that is between the quilt and binding. It takes out just enough bulk so the the corner lays perfect and it really works. Wish I could find the tutorial again. I would love to share it.Such a simple thing to make a big improvement in my work.

Hey every one, I found the tutorial I was looking for and it shows perfectly what I was trying to describe. Quilt designer, Patric Lose, will be the best binding buddy you could have.

First he sews the binding on and then goes back to clip the little hidden triangle off. WOW! If you know this trick great, if not, you are in for a treat, 'cause it works!!!!!

I got my WH from Linny, it's so adorable with a little 'punkin' in the corner. I'll try to post pic later on today if I can figure out how.
Have a blessed week everyone.

Hi Laquita, are you in more than one swap? Rhonda hasn't given out swap names for this one yet so maybe another swap you are in for your pumpkin in the corner! I would like to see it but want you to also have it in the right swap too.
