On the other hand, my hands are warning me that I might have to do it all by machine eventually, so I might as well start learning how.

I don't want to read 4 pages of answers, but here's my take on binding --- binding is EASY on a quilt but harder than heck on a potholder!!!! I refuse to bind potholders anymore. If you want practice, make some doll quilts or lap quilts....it gives you more room to "play"....

I don't mind binding so much any more. I use to dislike it terribly. But like all things, practice, practice.. I have also (recommended by a dear friend) gotten the binding tool from Keepsake quilting (a small white plastic item with differnt markings for 1/4", 3/8" 1/2" and can't remember the other one in each corner)and it is amazing how the mitered corners come out. Love it!
