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....
If you are sick so I am and a lot of others. Love hand sewing binding in evening.
