KJV APRIL

As quilt blocks and pieces are assembled, the edges tend to grow. As a result, edges are often longer than the center of the quilt. If you cut a border strip of fabric, sew it to an edge, trim it off, and repeat around the quilt, chances are that the borders will be longer than the center of the quilt, and you will have "ruffled" borders. Our goal as piecer and quilter is a flat, square quilt.To avoid ruffled borders, measure the center of your quilt, cut the first set of border strips to that length, mark the centers of the strips and the centers of the sides of the quilt, and pin from the center out to each side, easing in fullness. If your quilt is large, take three measurements across the center, average the measurements, and use that number for your border length. Re-measure and repeat for the second set of borders. If you are making a top with several borders, repeat this technique for each... Professional longarm machine quilting. Allover, edge to edge, custom and heirloom..
