I searched through my Kaffe Fassett fabrics for about an hour and auditioned them for binding. In the end I used leftover backing fabric. It has just enough black in the print to finish the edge nicely. This one is a special quilt so it is getting a hand finished binding. I am about 1/3 done with it.
I know you can't read the little label because it is written in pencil but it has the size of this piece written on it. I have a lot of backing leftovers in long strips and I haven't kept them all in one place. When I decide I want to use several of the strips together I can never find them. I decided now to cut the leftover to an even width and square off the 2 ends and label them. They will all go into the same box. All I will have to remember is which shelf I put the box on.
