Default Triangle Border

I want to add triangles to the outside border of my quilt (with the points down - sort like a triangle scallop if that makes any sense). I'm not sure how to attach the triangles to the quilt. Any suggestions? Thanks.

I love prairie points on a quilt. I once put them around the center, really a nice look. The points have to be tacked to make them stay put. They are easy as any border to sew on.
