I sew it on the back and turn it to the front.
Use the Elmer's School Glue to baste it in place.
Then topstitch the binding in place. I move the needle over as needed so the binding feeds under the foot easily and the stitching is where I want it.
The last quilt I made, I used one of my "fancy" stitches to topstitch the binding. I kind of like it and may use it again.
Ooh! I love that! Any idea what that stitch is called? I want to look for it on my machine
