After my first quilt, a king log cabin, I decided to do something a little smaller. I choose the 3 rail. I pieced it together in a couple of days after cutting all the pieces. The pattern did not have a border, but I think I will add a small inner border and a wider outer border. How should I quilt my 3 rail? I have a HV mega quilter. Thanks in advance for your advise.

I really like your top. I too have a HV Mega Quilter. I have only had it since April and am still in the meandering and loop-de-loop mode. I did not get the computer with it. I don't like heavily quilted quilts and mostly do charity quilts so meandering works well for these. I don't picture myself as EVER getting fancy with it.
