The tutorial I used said to make sure that you don't stitch through the front... but if you don't do that, how will it stay together??
Have you ever hand stitched the binding to the back or your quilt? Or done applique, like needle turn technique? Basically, all you are doing is catching threads on the side of the fold and then the fabric underneath. it is the same idea for doing the grandmother's flower garden ... your block looks great!
