A little binding practice ...

Been pretty busy lately with Christmas, Son#1 wedding, and work.  I have been making a few potholders to practice my binding as I am planning some quilts for gifts and want to get better at the mitered corners.  This way I can try different techniques on a small piece before I decide what to do on the bigger quilt.  The rose graphic came from the first quilt I did ... an embroidered whole cloth.  Scanned it in off the quilt, blew it up in the computer and used for a pattern.
