A darling quilt for a little girl. As for borders that do not buckle, years ago I was taught to measure at the center of the quilt and use that measurement to cut the border fabric. You might give that a try. It has worked very well for me.

I agree with this. Measure the vertical center to get the measurements to cut the borders for the long sides and then measure the horizontal center to get the measurements to cut the borders for the top and bottom. The quilt is very pretty!!!

Your quilt is beautiful. Love your colors and quilting is beautiful. Also love your optimism about the eventual grandchild. You also brought up a very interesting point...not sure if you love quilting yet. I have been quilting for more than 30 years and there are days I just hate the whole process or at least part of the process. One thing I do know for sure, I love the colors of quilting. My favorite part is buying fabric with my best friend and having lunch out afterwards. The rest, not so much!
