You could either start with narrower binding strips (what width are you using? ... 2.5 or even less works for me) OR you could stitch with a wider than 1/4" on the front. Sometimes I make a few inches of stitching using 1/4" then stop and try folding it over to see how much is turned to the back. At that point you can decide to make it 3/8" or so (test again), etc.
On the other hand, I have no problem with the binding being a little wider on the back. I assume you're hand sewing the back side?
BTW if you have a "thick" quilt (thicker batting?) you need the wider binding to wrap around.
