I use 40 when doing this math as it allows for a straight butted seam.(because fabric is usually 42) If you plan on a bias seam in your border (rarely is this done on a wide border) then you need to add about 20 inches per seam to the total. Does that help?
I think so. Thank you so much. If I get the border sewn on today, I will post a picture. Its GORGEOUS GORGEOUS. And I want to keep it for myself but I can't. :(
