There are a couple quick and easy mitering tools out there. I have one and it is great. When you have your backing ready to turn to the front, you draw a diagonal line across the folds, turn it right sides together, stitch on the line you drew, cut the excess, turn the miter and voila it is ready to stitch down. Check clotilde.com or nancysnotions.com. Mine is a clear green plastic with markings on it for the miter.
