    This is a birthday present I am finishing for DD. I did not realize that I sewed the binding on the back until it was all finished. I considered a decorative stitch or removing the binding and redoing. In the end I decided on hand stitching it with hidden stitch on the front. This is my first attempt at stained glass and I like the outcome.

    great job and very pretty. I sometimes put the binding on that way and hand sew it on the front. Just depends on if I am in the mood to hand sew.

    very very nice, I do both back and front just depends on the pattern, quilting and if I want a bigger binding on one side or the other.

    That is funny! I did the exact ame thing on the little girls quilt I made last week for my grand niece. Great minds must run on the same track because I sewed it down to the front like you did. LOL!
