I love to hand sew binding. Weird? I know it is the part of quilting that a lot of people dread. But, to me, hand binding a quilt is relaxing. The quilt is nearly done, and now you get to sit down, relax, and put those last stitches in to complete your quilt - how could this be anything but relaxing? It's not my favorite part of quilting...but it is up in the top 5.
I've machine-sewed binding only a few times. I am not good at it, and it doesn't give me that happy feeling. As far as machine-binding goes, I definitely think gluing is the way to go. It still requires some patience to get everything stitched in the right place.
I just finished binding a quilt that will be a Christmas surprise. Ready for the next one!
Quilt On!
