    Default Birthing or binding
    Love your quilt. I always like binding on a quilt.

    I agree with the advice to look at the Ankas Treasures tutorial. I followed it when binding a table runner that had four odd-angle corners, and they look good.

    Beautiful!!! Love the colors. I think it would look the best with a binding. I find it hard to keep things flat after birthing, my edges are always wavy.
