Monday, Done-day #1

Here is the quilt I just finished for my Sugar Bear.  I used minky fabric on the back to give it that extra cuddle factor.  I used a 3 inch binding that the lady from my local quilt shop talked me into trying.  The jury is still out on that one.  I think I like the look of the wider binding, but I felt it was a bit trickier to work with, since you trim the quilt after you machine sew on the binding.  You give the quilt an extra 1/4 inch of batting and backing from where the binding fabric ends.  Perhaps the tricky bit was actually due to the minky, which was also a first for me.  I guess all that matters is that Sugar Bear likes it.
