was not this girls best friend.

rather, i found it intimidating.

that may be odd to hear but it’s very true.

and so, when staring at that fantastic apple core 30′s quilt, i realized

i was going to have to overcome the intimidation.

and…

ta-da!

i did it.  :D

and ‘how?’ you might ask.

well, i found a great tutorial by ‘N’ over at ‘make it modern’.

warning:  it’s lengthy, however, the length is worth it.

the photos are detailed, the instructions are concise and short (the way i need them).

i slowly worked through it and was rewarded, my dears, with a beautiful binding.

so there you go!
