    This is basically what I do. After folding to the back & pressing it down, I lift it & use a small line or dots of glue fold binding down again & press. The glue & pressing keeps the binding in place & I rarely missing the back binding. I also use the edge foot to keep a straight line.

    I cheated and bought a Martelli Seam Guide & Stitch-N-Ditch Binding Foot from Nancy's Notions years ago. Not always perfect but that is okay with me as long as it is stitched on front of the binding. I sew onto the back first and bring to the front.
