I made a mini folded border one time, without knowing what it was called or how to do it. It came out great. I always do my side borders first, so, I measure for the length of the first regular border and cut the fabric for the folded border the same length. I cut the width 2", folded it longwise and pressed it. Then I just pinned it in between the quilt and the first regular border. When you add the top and bottom borders, make sure you have pressed the first folded border towards the outside of the quilt. Then when adding those last two borders, watch how you place the folded one, so that it too will face the outer edge. You can face the folded edge towards the inside of the quilt or the outer edges...just be consistent all around. Hope that helps. It's a really pretty frame for a quilt.
