    The pictures are great. I am making my first quilt. Can you address how stitch the binding around the corners? Thanks:)

    For once I am feeling successful! This is the way I always do hems on things or bindings. I taught a young woman at class how to do it and she immediately fell in love with not being able to see the stitches. :D

    I've done a little pictorial to help you with those corners.
    Part One:

    Sew up to this point
    [ATTACH=CONFIG]72677[/ATTACH]

    Fold this up to corner and start sewing along the next side for about 1\u0094.
    [ATTACH=CONFIG]72678[/ATTACH]

    Push the needle back between the layers to the corner again

    Part Two:
    After it is secured, I take my scissors and tuck it in under the corner.

    do an extra tacking stitch in corner and half way down the part you tucked.

    Part Three:
    Continue using the Ladder Stitch until the next corner and repeat.
