Default Double fold vs. single fold binding

I'm finishing up a quilt that I started a couple of years ago. No surprise that I don't have enough of the fabric that I want for the binding. The fabric I thought I would use just doesn't look as good. Of course this fabric is no longer available, I've done dozens of online searches. I have enough of my preferred fabric for a single fold binding, but not for the double fold that I usually do. A double fold binding is supposed to be more durable. I'm thinking that using a lightweight fusible interfacing on the single fold binding might make it as durable as the double fold. What do you think? Thanks for your thoughts!
