Addicted to Binding?

Addicted to Binding?
I have finally mastered hand stitching my bindings on, to my satisfaction. Now I want to do more.
I have been making potholders, so this is how I'm getting my practice. I have a 60" x 60" quilt top done, I just need to piece the backing (need my next check first). Then I'll get to bind that too!!!
I can't be the only one, can I?

I am another one who loves to sew on binding. It may be that the quilt is almost completed when I am sewing on the binding; but, actually, I think it is that I so enjoy hand sewing. When I first started quilting, I had trouble joining the binding; but now I even enjoy doing that. Best wishes with binding your 60" x 60" quilt.

I love it too. In fact, I have a friend that can sew the larger blocks together but due to her age she is having more and more problems with the fine details (she is 86) and so I will do the binding. My corners are not always perfect which can be frustrating because I think I am doing the same thing and one time they will be perfect the next one it is a fight. (i equate it to making pies, when it is for the family the crust is perfect, when company comes looks like I dropped it one the way to the oven.)
