I am the lone one who prefers not to sew around the edge of the quilt before adding binding. I tried it on a baby quilt recently and the last border wasn't as flat as I would have liked. I just pin and watch to make sure the extra backing doesn't get caught. I also like wider binding so mine is usually 3". I sew to the front and SITD on the front after folding the binding to the back unless I'm using a flange binding, which I usually forget to do. My edges are trimmed evenly after FMQ, before attaching the binding.
