- Fabric requirements are calculated for square corner borders and
standard seams. Mitered corners and seams will require additional fabric.
- Before adding borders, measure your quilt top length and width
down the center. Folding the quilt in half may make it easier to get an
accurate measurement.
- Compare your measurements to the "Expected quilt dimensions before
adding this border". Adjust the border instructions as necessary to match your
actual quilt size.
