I know the binding needs to be cut on the bias, but how in the heck do you get the binding to nestle so perfectly in the dips? Is there a tutorial that you would recommend?

    Thanks and congrats on a lovely quilt.

    Sorry,I dont have a tute,but once its cut on the bias and you sew it on it just lays right in,really very easy! The hard part for me is getting the scallops to fit.

    Very pretty. I too really like the binding, it just sets off the whole quilt.
