As I'm fond of using Elmer's Glue in my quilt making process, I add my binding dabbing a smidge at the edge all around the entire quilt at the ironing board. When I come to the two ends, I miter fold one end, slip the other end inside, dab a little glue to hold them together, go to the sewing machine, sew them together and then back to the ironing board to make sure it fits, trim the excess and then finish dabbing my glue to the edges before taking it back to the sewing machine to stitch it all together at one time. I have no problems at my mitered corners either. I hate having to pin my binding onto the quilt as I tend to get pricked every time. I'm clumsy and by this time the quilt is cumbersome due to its size so I need all the help I can get.
