Default Help with Flange binding

My first attempt with flange binding.
The binding is complete and ready to go on the back of the quilt. The quilt sits with all it's excesses on all 4 sides.
How much of the quilt do I trim off to ensure when the binding flips over 1) to cover the stitch line 2) fill the binding? Where do I stitch the binding to on the back?
With the binding ironed in half wrong sides together the binding part is 1"1/8 in. and the flange is 1/8"in.
Normally I leave 3/8" excess when stitching front to back. Thank you in advance!!
