only a newbie would do this
Ok so I was so proud of myself ......I finished quilting my baby quilt that I needed done by today and went to put the binding on.....I watched Jenny's tutorial using the binding tool and proceeded to get all my binding ready. I started sewing my binding in the middle of the top and when I got to the end (where your supposed to have six inches loose on both ends to use the tool) I cut the one piece with the tool and went to cut the other and realized I didn't leave any tail on the starting piece, I had just sewed it on at the start........Duh, so now I had a six inch shortage.
My solution was to make a label and sew the top end onto where the binding should have been, folded it to the back and hand sewed it........what a waste of time to finish this due to my birdbrain. I think it turned out all right but of course I know where it's screwed up, hopefully the recipient won't notice LOL
