quilt off the edge?
#1
When you are stippling or meandering do you quilt 1/4" inch from the edge of the quilt where you will attach the binding or do you quilt clear to the edge of your quilt - so when you attach your binding some of your quilting is underneath it? Hope this makes sense. I really don't think it matters - but just wondering if there is a right and a wrong way to do it.

Same here, besides most of the time I have straight stitched the edges down.
