[QUOTE=bj;7493904]I prefer the method you use. However, when I have machine stitched binding, I sew it to the front then fold it to the back. I pin from the front, very close together, and make sure I have an even width on the back so that it will look straight when I'm finished sewing it down. I stitch in the ditch, slowly, using my walking foot, and remove pins just before I get to them. It turned out pretty nice, but still not my favorite method.
This is the way I do my binding for charity quilts. However, I use my zipper foot so I can get very close to the ditch.
