This is the way I have bound all of my quilts except one where the binding was already cut for me. I love doing this. I cut the backing with a ruler so it will be square at least 2" wider than front. Then measure accurately and using elmer's school glue fold it over twice and glue, iron, and clip with wonder clips. Let dry over night. Then I use a blanket stitch on my babylock to stitch on the front. Looks pretty good to me. You have to be fussy getting the miters but it's not too hard. The worst part is man-handling the quilt on my sewing machine.
