With pillowcase style, there is no binding. You layer it with batting, bottom fabric on the batting right side up, then you put the top with right side down on the bottom pc. You sew it all around the outside edge but leave an opening for turning inside out. You trim the corners then carefully push out the corners (from the inside). Then stitch the opening closed. It doesn't take a very big opening. Then I press it lightly to smooth it out. I then stitch in the ditch on all seams. Then I stitch 1/4" around the outside. It's a very neat way to put it together. I sure hope this makes sense.
