This is what I do also. I often like to piece different colors for bindings on kid quilts, so sometimes the seams just can't avoid a corner no matter how well you planned and measured. So when the seam falls on a corner, I cut the fabric 2-4" or so short of the corner and make a new join. No problem at all, if you have enough fabric.
