You have to measure the quilt through the centre both ways - length and width, cut your borders to that measurement, mark the quilt and the border in quarters and match these points and pin then either ease in the fullness of the quilt (if it is longer than the border) or ease in the border (if it is longer than the quilt) and pin, pin, pin and sew. Hope this makes sense.
