A post today mentioned using glue to apply a binding to your quilt. This is the tutorial I saw that completely changed how I do my bindings. Sharon Schamber has excellent instructions.

At the very top go to classes, select Free classes,and scroll down near the end for the binding. I didn't like it until I tried it and it made a huge difference on the look of my quilts. There are many other classes there you can enjoy. I just saw one to square a block. Excellent.
