I will have to try this! I have never sewn through the thread to keep it from slipping out of the eye but I will for my next binding. This is an excellent video for all those who want to know how to do a quilter's knots as well for the end of your thread. I have tried to explain a quilter's knot but a video makes it much clearer. Thanks for this clever link!

Thanks for sharing, it's a great idea when you need a nice thin thread. I've always doubled the thread and knotted the end, and this will be much nicer!

This is wonderful - the thing I hate most about handsewing bindings is the thread slipping out of the needle. This will definitely solve that problem. Thanks so much for sharing it.
