I was very interested on how that question was going to be answered. A lot of people don't need borders. Because the seam to be able to have their finished block the correct size. I have a hugh problem with my blocks coming out the correct size. So a lot of times I have to use borders to even things out. I know, I'm practing on the cutting and 1/4 inch seams. I'm pretty sure that's where my problem is. Thank goodness these are wonky. Went on a shop hop yesterday and will finish it up tomorrow. Have seen lots of inspirational regular houses. Will start constructing mine this weekend.
