It is sewn on in 4 seperate strips, stopping the stitching 1/4" from the corners, but leaving "tails" that extend over the corners by several inches. Then you fold the corner back and mark the binding on the proper angle and stitch. Turn the whole binding back over to the other side (I like to top stitch on the right side, not the back) and it hides the little corner mitered seam inside the seam, very neat and clean. Linda
I think Ricky Tims binds his quilts this way.
