ironymaidentoday i attached the binding to a small quilting project. it's the first sewing i've done since April, when i finally stopped trying to make things because i made so many errors on every project i touched. 2011 has just not been good for quilting, and since i have two quilts that were meant to be done in December still in pieces, it gets me down. i spent a lot of time before i went to PA not able to concentrate enough to read and not able to write about how i felt and not able to quilt without ruining whatever i touched.
it's just a potholder, i still have to hand finish the rest. but the corner miters are all aligned and there's nothing misshapen about the join between the two ends of the binding (a bugaboo of mine evident in the last thing i did in April - i gave up and gave it to the intended recipient anyway).
i have another creative thing i can do when my buffer is full of photography info and i need time to process.
whew.
