I like binding because I know when I get there that it's almost done. I do not pin anymore, I went to Dollar Tree and got a package of hair clips for children and use them. They are so nice and no more sticking myself with pins. I always get a movie or some good TV show and sit down in my recliner with my quilt across my lap and sew the binding on. It gives me such a good feeling when the quilt is done and I did it all. Good Luck.
