What! No binding made.
I picked up my quilt and began to trim it. I wondered what for binding I had prepared. Ha! there was no binding prepared that would match this purple and green Smith Mountain Morning that will be part of the show and tell at the Bonnie Hunter lecture in less than three weeks. There were two red ones and a brown one neatly rolled on paper towel tubes. No purple or green. What was I thinking? Just showing it as a top?
So dig, dig, dig in the purple bin and came up with 4 choices. Please vote.

I like #2 as its closer to the purples you show on your corners. I'm a note taker using scraps of paper I cut down just for that purpose. I figure if there's a blank side of my copy paper useable I cut into 4 sections and keep them off to the side of my cutting table as well as at my PC. I write down all the amounts of fabrics I need, the cuts for each fabric, how much I need for borders, sashings and binding. Once I've cut the fabrics for these areas, I put a check mark alongside it so I know I've done it.............I also make my bindings and roll them up on a TP cardboard writing the name for which quilt it goes to. I have a container just to hold all my bindings so they don't get away from me.
You also might think of using the background fabric for your binding too.
