You have to be ***really*** careful if you do this! If you even nick the binding fold, you will have ruined the corner. I do sometimes trim a little of the *batting only* at the corner. I once trimmed a whole little triangle off each corner before turning the binding; had to remove all of it and start over again, as there was a hole in each miter!
