You work on one side of the quilt at the time, staring in one corner and finishing in the other. When you are done sewing one side, you flip the binding to the back so none of it is visible in the front and you hand stitch it to the back. People say that It is not as strong as regular binding because the edge of the quilt which is exposed to wear and tear is part of your quilt top and not the binding. But seriously, how often have any of us seen a worn out binding in our lifetime? Good luck!
I did have to replace worn binding once. My quilts get USED.
