I think it's a matter of *practice*,**practice**, ***PRACTICE***.
The binding is the one part of quilting that I dislike. But, again, with *practice*,**practice**, ***PRACTICE***, I am getting much better at it, and it's not as much of a chore.
There are so many tutorials out there, you just have to find what works best for you. And it's not just how you're stitching the binding, but also the BINDING ITSELF that you have to figure out. Some people say to use 1.75" strips (folded to .875") others recommend even narrower. Personally, I use 2" (folded to 1"). It took me awhile to find what worked for me... and it may be the same for you.
Have patience with yourself - you will get it eventually.
