I use a Zig Zag stitch - that catches both sides nicely and looks good too.

check out my binding demo on QuiltersTV and under Quilters Cafe. Look to see if it is showing today or in the near future. QuiltersTV is free.

I never use glue, just a skiny strip of heat and bond light along the edge inside the stitching from sewing on the first part of the binding. I find it faster and neater than glue as long as I am bringing the binding just a few threads past the first step binding stitches. It also makes machine sewing more accurate. Not sure how the glue thing got to be so great when using a light fusible has been much neater, after all fusibles are really just glue, but more precise.
