All that adds up to 3/4" plus ... double folded 1-1/2", which gives you 1/2" extra for the folds and sandwich thickness.

Will it work? It really depends on how thick your quilt sandwich is, when the binding goes over that edge.

Try a short piece first and see if you have enough to do the flip to the back, and still cover the machine stitching.

If so ....... go for it!!

Perfectly stated.
