I then attach the edge to the top of the quilt. (most of my pics are on the bottom because many of the pics didn't come out well, so I re-shot them on some test fabric). I sewed for about 3-4 inches on the edge on the quilt and cut the thread. I then folded over the edge in the middle and sewed from where it meets the quilt.

Then I sew the edge towards the corner of the quilt, stopping .25 inch from the corner. I stopped stitching where I stitched the backing and batting together. Once I've reached the corner, I folded the edge 45 degrees back away from the direction of the edge of the quilt. Now I fold it back and align it with the edge and continue sewing to the next corner and rinse and repeat.

When I meet up where I started. I trim the excess off at an angle and tuck it into the pocket I made at the beginning of this step. Then I sew along the edge to close it.
