I used the satin binding on a baby blanket - I straight stitched one side in place, then brought the binding around and pinned it (lots!) and then ran a wide zig-zag around to pick up the edges on both front and back. I thought it was a nice "touch" to add to a blanket - my DIL reminded me how much babies liked the different feel of things so I used flannel and minkee in the blanket with the satin binding - turned out great!
