I finished this quilt and I'm pleased with how it turned out. It doesn't look much different from the last picture I posted of it, but I did add light blue ties and finished hand sewing the binding.

Hand sewing the binding was time consuming, but I think it worked out pretty well. I'm going to try it on my next quilt too and see if I can get it to look even better. I think it is probably a better way to bind my quilts than to try to machine sew them, at least until I learn how to actually do machine quilting.
I really need to find a quilting class to take...
Here is a link to a great lesson on binding. It sounds kind of confusing, but when you take it slowly it turns out really good. http://www.heatherbaileydesign.com/HB_QuiltBinding.pdf
