Quote: I always sew to the back, flip it to the front and do the stitch-stitch-zig stich to attach it. That way the not so good parts are on the back but the front looks good. I just hand sewed a binding for a quilt I put in a show. I decided I'm not doing that anymore!
I use this BACK TO FRONT method as well. I use different decorative stitches when I sew the binding onto the front. It makes a beautiful binding and takes much less time. It is also more durable then a hand stitched binding.
