Well.. Im very dissapointed in this blanket :( I made this blanket for Joshua. Its made with flurr and is the softest thing Ive ever felt! But the satin binding I used I just completly suck at and have NO idea what Im doing. First I had no idea how to do the corners so I guessed, then I was unsure what stitch I should use.. I used a straight stitch but in looking at it I dont think that was the best choice. I was also unsure how close to sew to the edge of the binding. And then what really sucks is although I had it pinned ALL the way around it while i was sewing it kept bunching up the satin binding. My mom said I may need to adjust the pressure foot.. LOL duh I didnt even know that was an option. I will have to dig out the book and see. But anyway.. I can still use this blanket for the house.. but Im just totally bummed it didnt turn out better :(

I hate binding too, A walking foot would help alot!!! satin is very hard to sew anyway........I bet it is soo soft!
hmm walking foot. I will have to get one of those.
yes they are awesome!
Don't put yourself down so hard. Remember the first product never turns out the way you like it. Think about your first diapers. You were not satisfied then either. I love you!!
