Do some small practice pieces using Elmer's Washable Glue. Make it go a little larger on the back so you will catch some the fabric with the stitches. Here's what I do. I stitch to the front, press the binding out straight, flip it around, fold it over and glue baste it to the back. It helps to have a small pointed bottle or one with a metal tip. I don't mess with the tip very often, the small bottle is fine if I'm careful not too squirt too much out. I glue about a foot or so, then press it down with the iron and move to the next section. You can get your corners really nice this way too. You don't need any clips or pins. It does take some prep work, but it's so quick to sew around it after that it balances out. Here is a great tutorial by Sharon Schamber.
