I used school glue, after reading about it here. I love it.
The hair clips work very well.

I don't pin or clip my binding to whip it to the back.

I bought some clips similar to those at Houston Quilt show and I like them but wish they were longer. But I like the long hair clips you can get at Wal-Mart or $ store.

go to Walmart and get the hair clips - cheaper and you get more in a pkg. and they work wonderful.

Those clips look great. A little too pricey for me, though. I will be looking for hair clips. Thanks for the info. I use the silver clips when I am handstitching binding but never thought of this for sewing.

Me too! They work very well for me. Easy to open and close etc. Yolanda Wood River
