A long time ago I bought a small gadget that was supposed to simplify and ease the binding by machine both sides at the same time. I fiddled with that thing until my eyes crossed & tried it over & again. Finally I just decided to heck with it and I worked out a way to machine stitch bindings that is durable and most of the time nice looking. Here goes: Sew the binding to the backside of the quilt on the machine first. Then choose a nice decorative stitch on your machine (my favorite is what we used to call "chicken scratch" actually similar to a herringbone stitch), fold the binding over to the front of the quilt and keeping the folded edge as close to the line of stitching from the first stitching (?) take it away with your decorative stitch. It actually covers any little boo-boo's and is so much faster than hand work & for charity quilts/quilts that will be heavily used, it's the only way I do it now. Like FMQ all it takes is practice!
