How do you attach binding to a quilted table runner?

I made a quilted table runner for my grandmother and am now attempting to attach the binding. I know how to make and attach binding and have completed a large quilt, however, with my table runner the ends of it are almost like a diamond shape. So, essentially there are 3 "corners" on each end to work with. Does anyone have any hints or suggestions? Thank you!

Stop 1/4" from the "corner". Back stitch. Lift the binding at a 45 degree angle and then back down. Stitch to the next "corner" and repeat.
