I want to share how helpful this post has been to me. I am in the midst of making a king-size quilt for my in-laws. It's from Eleanor Burns' Quilt in a Day (har har har) Kaleidoscope Quilt book. I was just about to start putting the border on when I read this post. Those of you who recommended measuring from the middle and then cutting the strips to that length were RIGHT ON. I had never done borders this way, and I sure am glad I did. I used to just start at one corner, attach the border and go! Now, I have borders that are the same length as each other, and all around. Don't know how it is I never learned this before. THANK YOU.
