I was reading these answers and saying yes...to all the methods. I can see the reasons behind them all. Then I saw what dojo had to say about the zigzag and thought, well, yes....that would work well too!
Klue, from the videos on youtube that I've watched using the glue method for binding...it is just a water based Elmers, so it would be gone in the 1st washing I think. I really understand why you would worry about the threads coming undone.
I guess I'll be doing a lot more thinking about this and maybe just not using a stipple pattern in the border would solve the problem though!
