Last steps for the Board quilt

Well, I'm down the home stretch now.  I made great progress yesterday.   The quilting is completed and now I'm doing the binding.  I cut 2 inch strips and sewed them down on one side, flipped the quilt and then sewed them on the back side using a decorative stitch.  The corners were all mitered for a crisp look.

Here is the stitch I used on the binding.  I like loopy types so it catches both sides of the binding for a strong hold

  Tomorrow I will post the finished quilt
