I guess I'm a Minority...I use to do phoney borders, 3 inch fabric around and then sandwich batting, and two fabrics right sides facing each other. Sew around leaving 5 inches at base to turn inside out...Then I did Stitch in a Ditch. But then a cousin who hand quilts showed me how to bind and I love it!!!! I cut 2 1/2 inch binding fold in half, sew on one side and then hand sew with hidden stitch on the other. I actually find hand sewing at night while watching TV to be relaxing...Can't get enough of it...I know I'm sick....
