I've made a complete recovery from my binding mishap and have been working on stitching down the properly attached binding to Grand Illusion.
I've got a ways to go on getting it all stitched down, but a finish is definitely on the way.
Not much to report on my de-stashing efforts this week. Correcting my binding fiasco kept me pretty occupied most of this week, so about all I have to report as outgoing is that pesky binding.
Used last week: 0.59 yards
Used in August: 9.98 yards
Used in September: 0.53 yards
Used year to date: 28.8 yards
Purchased year to date: 10.25 yards
Net used for 2015: 18.55 yards
It's still a good week with a little something out with nothing in. Though I will admit, maintaining my fabric diet has been a challenge this last week. So far I'm holding firm. I would really like to end this year with a net reduction in the stash. I keep reminding myself of that goal anytime I see a sale on quilting fabric.

Glad your binding is heading in the correct direction now. :-)
Way to go! You're right that even a small move is pretty spectacular when there's nothing coming in.
Binding is my favourite... enjoy your stitching (even though there was such a time consuming mishap preventing you from getting to this point!)
Glad you got that straightened out and are on the way to a finish. I've been saving the handwork of a binding until the weather is cooler. Hope you have a finish soon.
