Several years ago, I took a quilt class. We made a sampler quilt the old fashioned way: cut out plastic templates, trace around them, hand piece, quilt as you go. Learned a lot, but sampler's aren't my thing, so I don't keep the quilt out. Recently took it out to inspect it. Piecing=pretty good! Quilting=pretty good! Binding=WHAT THE ....?!
I guess someday I can remove the binding and fix it.

Looks entirely too familiar!
I experimented yesterday with trying to machine stitch the back side of the binding by SID on the front...did not work as well as I had hoped!!! Thank goodness it was only a placemat!

at least you attempted the binding. My first few projects I did the inside out no binding quilt. I still dont like the binding process I struggle with it. But it does add a much nicer touch. I think your quilt is beautiful and easy to fix. My first quilt was hidious didnt match and so many mistakes. It started coming apart after almost a year. Live and learn. My kids love it though, its been stored away until I die then they can fight over the ugliest quilt ever made.
