I use gluesticks...very cheap at the $1 store, 3 to a pack. No waiting for it to dry, no seeping through the fabric, and water soluable. It doesn't gum up my machine needle and can start sewing right away. I press the binding, glue, and repress each area and by the time the quilt is done with this, it's ready to stitch down. I machine sew my binding to the back and bring it to the front, press to just cover the stitching, glue, repress, and sew down. Really cuts down on the amount of time everything takes to do and looks nice.
