I'm surprised no one uses a walking foot for this job. Maybe I'll try these other feet, but I've had no trouble.

try Elmer's gluing it before you machine stitch it down. Works for me!

A wonderful project your guild does. Your quilt is very pretty and some child will be thrilled with it.

I suspect the binding won't be noticed by the child snuggling under it. You Tube has several good tuts on machine binding. Please don't let the pain of arthritis stop you doing what you love.
