OK, you can hand stitch the binding to the back OR you can press the binding after sewing it to the front and then stitch in the ditch and catch the folded over binding in the back. There is a Quilter's TV video on this method. Also quilting.about.com has a lesson. I no longer hand stitch the binding. It is much faster by machine. Of course, if you are having the quilt judged, that is a different story.
