    Althea, the below link for the method I use to sew binding to my quilts. I printed it out and put it in a plastic sleeve to keep permanently. I hate sewing on bindings and cannot do it by hand anymore.

    Caroline- that's a nice tutorial. I have one question on the 'pocket' that she creates where the ends meet. When it's pulled around to the front of the quilt, isn't there still a 'hole' there? Did I miss a step where the hole was sewn closed?
    I see that she put a pin in there to hold it while it was being pulled to the front so it wouldn't move...but isn't there STILL a little hole there?

    Are you referring to step 11? If so, yes, there is a hole but once I pin it I stitch the opening (hole). I am binding a table topper today and if you need pics I can post them to clarify the instructions.
