Default Question about amount of material needed to miter corners
I am looking at a quilt that has vertical/horizontal borders. The quilt is 56" square and the borders are 3 inches wide.

I am guessing that a mitered border would measure be cut at 3 1/2-inches x 56 1/2-inches. Is that correct?

I've never mitered a border before, but I think this particular quilt will look better with a border. Any advise?

TIA,
Dray
