I don't see in your steps that you are checking to make sure quilt is squared up. I use the 12" square ruller to check corners & 24" ruler for sides. Does your quilt top lay flat before adding the borders?

1. Press quilt with dry iron.
2. Measure quilt through middle (vertically and horizontally)
3. Add 2x width of that measurement and cut border strips to that length
4. Attach top and bottom borders
5. Attach side borders
