I saw a nice selection of borders made with Boston Blocks sometime during this past week or so. I don't know if I said to myself, "I will never do that", or "I will remember how to do that." But I've lost them and now want to make a border like one of those. Does anyone know where this thread can be found?

Rhonda has some tutes on Boston Blocks.
Do these help?

Thanks Gay. Rhonda works with miniatures, and makes her blocks a different way than I do. I make larger ones. And I didn't find any borders there. Still looking.
One of the borders I was looking for is Twisted Ribbon.

Quilters Cache has several border patterns, including the ribbon.

Thanks feline fanatic. Those are really cute. I see the twisted ribbon and lots of others. I can use part of the second link as a border.
There is still another site which has multiple ways to use the Boston Block to make different border arrangements. Some have the blocks all the same way and some use mirror images of the block to make the pattern.

This site has a number of border ideas. Hope this helps. http://www.victorianaquiltdesigns.ne...ltSettings.htm

Lots of good ideas here, too. Thank you so much pewa88. I should be able to find something usable here.
"Three Triangle Unit" blocks at the end of the list is close to what I am looking for.
Apparently the Boston Block is called Three Triangle Unit here.

I found what I was looking for under Borders. There are several with Boston Blocks and quite a few others.
