I used satin in the red quilt in my photo section, and bound it with satin. It was slippery so had to pin it well. The rounded corners were difficult as I didn't cut on the bias, but I am happy with the finished product. It lays on my spare bed, and hasn't been washed yet, but I don't foresee any problems - fingers crossed. I used a 3" strip, folded in half, and made sure I used more than the 1/4" seam allowance, to stop fraying.
