Also when you are sewing the binding on the front stop at 1/4 inch from the corner and turn your fabric at an angle and sew off at the point. This helps make the miter easier.
i think i will try this, hope i understand it correctly! Is the iron on thread so that when you fold over, the fold sticks down after you iron it???

thanks much. also didn't know there is such a thing as stitch in ditch foot.
