Wow, wow, wow. What beauties! The stars just sparkle on that blue background fabric. Such special gifts. I don't mind hand sewing bindings but I do like mindless, hand work. Using a table to support my hands helps. Of course, binding on a deadline has got to be tough.

Now I'm really impressed that you were able to make that so quickly and so well with work on top of it. I bet Carol would love to see a picture too. She has a class starting through Craftsy if you can't find another way to reach her.
