Oh binding how I despise doing you. I use the lets get it done method since I do not enter competitions and they are mostly gifted. I cut my binding at 2.5 inches. I do not iron it, pin it or glue it! I sew it with a 1/4 inch stitch to the back and flip it over and pull the binding to the front and sew it down. Now the quilt is completed and I am ready to move on to the next quilt. I used clear thread sometimes. This technique did not work for a scalloped edge and my girlfriend rescued the finished DWR except for the binding that was thrown in the corner out of frustration and finished the binding by hand for me - thank you Clara Marie
