So do I. I have tried 2 1/2 inch double fold, but it seems to have too much material for me. I have a book on binding and it recommends 1 7/8" for double fold. I tried that once and it was way too small! With the 2 1/4" I hand stitch the binding down on the back. I don't know how well that would work if you machine stitch the binding.
