Yes, I was able to cut 2 1/4 inch strips for the binding and then I zig-zagged it on. I could have cut them larger too, which would have made it easier, but was unsure how much I would have. I didn't know how to pillow case it so I was very happy to have enough to do the binding.

I love it! Looks better with the pink inner border than their neon orange. Great job and the kids will love it! :D :D

This is adorable. The recipient will be one lucky child & their family. Doesn't it make you feel good to do something for a child?

Great job, the pink is perfect for it. I love the way we all seem to have gotten different fabrics. Makes me wonder how many they have.

They must have sent out several Dancing with Fairies quilts at the same time. I did one this week end that was pink, orange and yellow. Don't have it bound yet but will be using fabric from my stash
