I haven't done many quilts where I don't hand stitch the binding to the back. At times it seems like the quilt has grown overnight, however, I put the quilt in my lap and watch a movie or TV and before long it's done.

Thread Heaven. It's a sort of waxy substance that comes in a little blue box. It helps a lot by keeping your thread from tangling. Other than that, just turn on a favorite show (gotta love DVR's) and spend a nice quiet afternoon sitting and sewing. I enjoy doing some handwork. It gives me quiet time.
