Personally, I think it's a more finished look for a quilt, especially with a sophisticated design like the one created with the wedges.

And if you're unsure, just make a small half circle quilt sandwich from scraps and try to attach a piece of (bias) binding to it.
I did not use bias on a small single Dresden table topper and it does cup a tiny bit. I thought I could get away with using what was a fairly stretchy cotton. It doesn't look too bad but I will use bias next time :-)
