Mine didn't disappear! I'm going to watch some youtube videos before doing this next one!
Use a matching to the binding thread and a fine needle, like a #10 sharps applique or something. One strand of thread. Bury your knot in the seam allowance and then just catch one or two threads on the very edge of your binding, plus a bit of the backing and batting. If you bring your needle up underneath the edge and the threads that you catch are on the very edge or just under the edge of the binding .... your stitches will not show much. Good Luck!
