I am learning to quilt the quilt tops. I plan to square up the quilt after I have quilted it. It isn't very far off now.

I would like to know how close to the edges I can machine quilt so that I don't cut through the stitches when I trim to square and still be close enough to secure the quilt top edges. My DH asked me and once again, I had to answer, I don't know. So here I am again, hoping for advice from the helpful quilters here. :)

I tried searching many question types and couldn't find an answer to this question. I even Googled and tried You Tube. Thanks in advance for you very highly appreciated help. I really don't know how I expected to learn how to quilt before I found all of you. :)
