Go with Nanas instructions, the only difference in my bindings is the width of them. Like charsuewilson said, I go with 2 inch unless using extra thick batting then 2 1/4. I also alter which side of the quilt I attach to depending on whether its for a show or just for my use. If its for a show i attach to back then fold to front. For personal use I attach to front and fold to back.
