I also use a single thread and small blind stitch which looks nice. I really enjoy handstitching my bindings.

I use double, but rarely hand sew my binding anymore.

I use a single thread and hide a knot in the binding once in awhile (figuring if the thread ever breaks, there will only be 6 inches or so of mending to do).

Single, small blind stitch. Totally invisible and very strong. What more could you ask for? :)

p.s. did not use glue, never have, never will ! ! ! |
I use single thread, I think that makes the stitches less visible

I too use a single, small stitch - stitched blind. No problems encountered.
