I finished Cozy Afternoon which was 136" of binding. It was a little harder on my hands because of the flange in the binding on the front of the quilt. I should have cut the binding strips a bit wider to accommodate the flange, but I forgot, and had to really pull the binding to cover the stitching line on the back.
A quick finish, was the Peaceful Country Roads quiltalong which was 21.25" square, so it only adds 85" to the monthly total, but I'll take it!
Then I finished a little hand quilted miniature block called Times Nine. That added 48" to the total.
October's total is 621".
And adding this number to September's total of 2,832" gives me a total of.... 3,453" of binding in 2015 so far! Woohoo!
PS.... I hope someone is checking my math :)
Linking up to Julie's binding blitz.

Wow! That's a lot of finishes! Way to go!
Wonderful to see all these bindings!
Any way you add it up, that is a lot of binding. Best of all, it represents a lot of finishing. Congratulations.
I started back to sticking on a huge king size quilt that I'm about halfway through, and has been sitting in the closet untouched for maybe a year. I will finish it THIS month! This week would be even better!
Gosh that's a lot of binding :-)
Congrats a lot of binding and a lot of finishing! October was a great month isn't it?
Wow! I'm really really impressed! (I just did a quick calculation on my own year's worth of binding - I think I'm at 160 inches...)
some great finishes I enjoy the hand sewing part of the binding, very relaxing just wish I culd aster the quilting part
Congrats on all those finishes!
