I just finished putting the binding on my king sized quilt. I bound it by machine, and it took 2 1/2 hours to do, but I had no mistakes to rip out.
It is 116x116 inches, and it is really too big for my bed. But it will be going on the bed anyway! I tucked the bottom border under in this picture.
I like how long it hangs over the sides, but I could have cut 20 inches off the length.
I learned how to miter a border, how to do fusible applique, and how do do a bargelo pattern on this quilt. I still need to wash it, but I wanted to try and get a picture of the quilting. It looks like loopy feathers.
Most of the fabric is Bar Harbour by Minnick and Simpson. This quilt is the third and final finish for this quarter in the FAL.
