Choose your border style.
2) You can have corner stones like in the top left. Corner stones are great for a little extra color in the border. You can put in another piece of fabric in the corners that is in your quilt and different from your border. A good fudge if you don't quite have enough fabric for a full border like below.
3)You can have mitered borders. When measuring for mitered borders, you must overlap your border ends when measuring to allow for the miter.
4)You can have a butt joined corner like in the lower right where you sew the top and bottom borders to the edge of the quilt, then the side borders go to the outside edge of the top and bottom border.
5) You can have a pieced border. There are no samples of peiced borders on this ilustration, but there are some on this page. (The WWW page should open in another browser window so you don't have to page back)
