Finishing Touches

So now the choices for the edge.  I decided to do a small piping and then bind it conventionally.

Here are my color choices: (I know that the green is bright, but the piping is so small that the brightness helps it show.)

I'll show you a couple of shots along the way--the method is Susan Cleveland's.  She has books to show you how and a spot on TQS.

I think that the tiny piping really adds a nice design touch.  I use it often.

Next I'll stitch it all down...not my favorite thing cause it has to be by hand, but again it's worth it to do it right.

Maybe tomorrow I'll have it done?!

Ok, here we go...finished.
