I was able to get the binding finished on this Honey Bee Quilt last week and I really like the way it turned out. When we started our remodeling project we moved as many things as possible out of the two rooms involved. Every room in the house ended up as a storage rooms except the bathroom. And since my sewing room doesn't get a lot of traffic it seemed to be used the most. As of right now I couldn't get to my Viking if I wanted too as it is in a cabinet. But my Janome and Featherweight are accessible and I have used both of them for three retreats in the last few weeks. I hand quilted this quilt, added the binding by machine during the early stages of the remodeling, so I just had to hand stitch the binding. I have done both methods of binding, totally by machine and by machine and hand stitching and I still prefer the hand stitching. I just like the way it looks. Last night I finished the binding on another quilt and will have to get a picture of that one. I have not even started settingup my new sewing room yet. We are going to wait till we can get to town to buy new storage shelves. I am anxious to get things rolling.
