When I brought my quilt home from the quilter and threw it on the bed I realized I should have made it wider so it would hang over the mattace. It's a scrapy quilt. The border has a 2 inch black border and a 2 inch green border with circle quilting to finish it off. It's plenty long, just narrow. There is at least a quarter inch between the circle quilting and the edge of the fabric. Is it possible to attach another border to make it wider? I was thinking of attaching a "piano key" border of a couple colors that are in the quilt, then machine stitch an "X" over each color.. Of course I have to do the back side too. I really don't want to take it back to my quilter...I'm too embrassed.. You quilter's out there always have great ideas. Or maybe I should be happy with the way it is and leave well enough alone. Any suggestions? Thank you.
