I always iron the 2-1/4 in binding in half, use a walking foot on a trimed quilt, and use the foot as a guide. I stitch about 5 or 6 inches check to see how it would be on the other side because it matters what batting you use. I also quilt and attach binding for others for a fee, some people use very low loft batting and some high loft poly so you adjust the width of stitch
I fold the corners so that I get a very good miter.
