I watched a video yesterday - since I like to machine bind my smaller quilts - and this lady did basically as I have always done - with a small twist. Fold your binding in half, line up raw edges on the back of your quilt and sew the binding on 1/4 of an inch in. Fold your binding over to the front and make certain the binding covers your original stitches - pin in place - from the back. Now RESEW on the back - stitch in the ditch. You should barely catch the front binding and the back won't show the original stitching - so you only have one line of stitching that shows.
