Binding opinion please !!!

[Iminei]

Top finished ....



Bit concerned about the wibbly sashing (in the top 3rd between row 1 and 2) ... could it be because the sashing was cut LOF instead WOF ... mind you the other sashing is ok so ?? I'll see if it bugs me enough to unpick.

Now for the back ... using the multi coloured block.

Very nice

What's LOF and WOF ?

If you are bugged by the waviness just re-do the seams in the borders and taper slightly towards the outside. That should be enough to sort it and no unpicking required.

Length of fabric and width of fabric @BrendaP 

[BrendaP]

Ahh!
LOF = lengthways = warp direction = parallel to selvedge
WOF - widthways - weft direction.

Lengthways/LOF - is more stable/less stretchy than widthways/WOF.

[Kenora]

Will it press out or is it too wibbly for that?

Great quilt top, btw - looks completely different now all the sashing's on. 

[Iminei]

Finally Layered ... Phew!

Why do I do this to myself ?

In the end I had top resort to a lightbox under the three layers to align the back and front.

[Iminei]

Quilted, trimmed and ready to bind ... but which one



linky

Which do you think ... 1,2 or 3 or 'none of the above' ? In that case which way should I go ???

Help Please Gals!

[Acorn]

I love them all... I think the bottom one just about has the edge for me.

[wrenkins]

Bottom or top but the bottom one just nicks it for me. Lovely! 

[Lowena]

Middle one

[Iminei]

Just a thought ... What about a scrappy B&W border ?

WHY am I making more work for myself ? Can someone please explain????

[Lowena]

I usually bind my quilts in plain black if an option doesn't jump out at me

[Bodgeitandscarper]

Me, I'd pick a plain colour that I want to be the "dominant" one, but then what do I know?  #Iamnotaquilterandneverwillbe

[supergran]

I like the top one.
