I absolutely love the glue method...I found a two ended glue pen at Walmart, one end has a fine point and it works great. I only glued the binding on before machine stitching to the quilt. I did not like the glue on the back, I just pressed and pinned it before I hand stitched it down. It seemed to be a little messy on the back...Maybe I put too much glue. For the front and corners it was amazing...My wall hangings hang perfectly straight!
