Once my quilt sandwich is all quilted, I run a row of stitching all around the layers about 1/8 inside the edge. I square up the quilt and sometimes this cuts a bit of the edge stay stitching off but that doesn't matter. Once the quilt is squared, I line up the double fold binding raw edges with the raw edges of the quilt. I sew all around the quilt with a 1/4 inch seam allowance. This gives me all the padding I need in the binding when I flip the binding to the back and hand stitch it to the back.
