How about an additional line of quilting about 1/4" in from the binding? It would be perpendicular to the piano keys. I suggested 1/4", but would pick a measurement that would catch most of the threads. Then pull the loose threads to the back, put a tiny dot of fray check and cut.

So I stitched piano keys in the ditch, like 350 of them. At the end of each line of quilting, when I got off the quilt, I used the auto knot feature on my machine. Then when I squared off my quilt to bind it, I cut off all those little knots--I can't believe I did that. So now that it's bound, I have all these loose threads sticking out.
I was guessing that I need to unstitch each one, knot it on the back, and then machine SID along the places that it's become unstitched. Does anyone have a better idea?
I am not a happy camper.
