I think Jinny Beyer fixed that for us. She has beautiful border prints, but she designs them to be cut up & put into new configurations, so they are wider to allow for that. No one else seems to be doing it, either. There are plenty of stripes out there, but nothing that fills the bill for us. When we were first starting talking, I went searching & couldn't find anything, so started thinking about what I would do instead. Tried to put a nice fabric in it's place, but it wimped out on me. Someone mentioned doing shark tooth borders & I though that would work perfectly. Found my perfect fabric & love how it turned out, even if I didn't do it right.
