I hand stitch the back of the binding with a blind stitch. It takes quite a while, but it looks pretty good when I'm finished. By the way, the quilt is BEAUTIFUL! I haven't gotten up the nerve to tackle applique yet. Maybe someday.

You quilt is really quite beautiful and any child or fellow quilter LOL would be lucky to have it!!!
I hand stitch my binding on the back of my quilts. It goes pretty quick. I usually bind my quilt while watching (actually listening to) the television in the evening. As someone else said in a previous reply, this, too is the only part of my quilts that are hand stitched. Keep trying, it does get easier.
