Design Wall Monday

It's actually off the wall, but I've completed the quilting on the geese quilt for Baby C. My daughter and I chose a plaid for the binding that I wanted to do as a bias binding. 

Last time I made bias binding two weeks ago I used the square method. I decided to do that again but needed help with calculations. I found this in my search: http://www.sew4home.com/tips-resources/sewing-tips-tricks/bias-binding-figuring-yardage-cutting-making-attaching

Sorry I can't shorten the link when I'm mobile blogging on the bus!  Anyway, the steps were clear and easy. 

At this point you trimmed the first strip' sends like the others and proceeded with joining the strips as usual.  My estimate was off, somehow, and I should have cut my square a bit bigger. So, add a little more to your binding measurements and round up, people!  

I'm happy to say the binding is all on at this point and except for closing the corners and attaching a label, the quilt is finished!  See more design walls on Judy's Patchwork Times.
