This tutorial is so easy to follow! Makes me want to do a quilt that has pieced borders!
|
Thank you so much. I always wondered what if border motif does not fit my top? Now I know there is a solution.
|
This is terrific. Thank you for the help. I've struggled often enough in the past trying to figure this out.....no more!

I hope it's clear--it's the first tutorial I've ever even thought about posting. I also hope it will be useful to someone besides me--I've needed to do this calculation several times, so I finally decided to write equations for it. |
While looking at tutorials I saw this and had to see what coping strips are. I was so surprised. I have been doing this since I started quilting 6 years ago and never knew it was a technique. I just thought I was fixing my mistakes! Enjoyed your tutorial, BTW. Good job.

I learned a few years back that the extra $100 for Word really ends up worth the price if not more.
