border sizes
#1
I want to make 3 Carpenter Star quilts for my gk but I don't want it to end up square, so can someone give me some ideas on how to make the top and bottom borders wider than the sides? They all have twin beds, two of them being bunks.
I've tried to figure it out, but I don't want it to look strange and I've done a search with nothing that strikes me.
Thanks

You could add a top and bottom border that is pieced or appliqued and then use your border fabric around all four sides. The mood of the colors or the pattern in the fabric in the carpenters square might tell you what piecing or applique would look good.
