There is no reason why you could not sew the binding on the front and then flip it to the back for handsewing the binding down.
Since my machine stitches are going to show on both sides of the quilt, I flip the binding around to the front, to keep track of the edge of the binding, while I am stitching it down. That is just my preference.
