Sewing Practice

Here's a wall hanging I finished last week for my daughter.  As you can see, I didn't measure the backing square.  Don't ask why because I don't know the answer to that one.  Oh, well!  Lessons learned! 
I didn't use any tutorial or anything, just made it up. 

Then I just finished this hot pad today.  Not extremely happy with it.  I found a mitered binding tutorial on You Tube.  I definitely need more practice!

And here's the back of it.
