The Trip is Finished!

Well, here it is, finished at last:  my Around the World Quilt.  The final step was the binding, and I had some trouble with it.  I trimmed the backing and batting to 1/2 in. bigger than the quilt top, and I usually do a quarter inch.  I recommend the quarter inch.  I had backing fabric and batting folded over and sticking out of the binding on the back side of the quilt.  I had to redo a number of sections.  But it was worth it, because it is finished and it is beautiful!  Now, who should I give it to???
