you mean keep the border fabric ON TOP of the quilt when sewing it on?
Yup. Unless you're using a walking foot or even feed foot the feed dogs will slightly ease in the bottom fabric. "Bag the bottom" and "bias on the bottom" are old sewing sayings for a reason.
I always put my borders on the top, but never knew I was supposed to! THanks for sharing that!
