I baste the edgs of my binding together before attaching it to the quilt. I also sew the layers of my quilt together before I put the binding on it.
I DO NOT press the binding in half - because as it is folded around, that pressed fold line is a couple of threads off from where the actual fold line is.
This way I only need to keep track of teo things, instead of five.
It does take a bit more time "up front" - but it helps minimize slippage.
