I don't mind at all doing the binding. I sit in front of the TV and am warm from the quilt and my hands are occupied. My suggestion is if you don't like to do the binding or find it boring, have a binding party. I did this for our quilt guild raffle quilt. I was in charge of the quilt and it was 106" X 106". We had about six of us show up and we sat around the quilt and had it done in no time. We gathered at our LQS and she provided treats for us as well as the space. We had a great time stitching and socializing.
