This is the way I do it too. I cut my border about 1/2 inch wider than I really want it. I will even up the sides, but not square the top. Measure in 3 places across the top, average them, cut the border that length and attach. Then after it is quilted I square up the quilt. If the border ends up being a bit wider on one end, no one notices. Also if the fabric creeps around some while being quilted it doesn't matter as much.
