Fish Hanger Again

Yes, we're off on a cruise again, but this time with friends who have never been on a cruise. I'm surprising them with a fish extender. This time, I made a backing about an 1inch bigger than the width and even with the length. I love how this avoided having to make seam binding AND it finished off the top better than using seam binding as well.

I sewed the backing and front together, right sides together. When turned right side out, the backing peeked out along the sides. Stitching in the ditch made a "binding" and then I surged the top and bottom.
