Thank you all.
There were a few "fists" for me in the quilt. Most of the fabrics are batiks (a first), some I bought from the LQS, but ordered some on-line (another first). The other first was to sew my two stripe and the brown borders all together in one long piece to use as one border and mitered the corners. Worked out just right, had about 6 inches left over from that and only a few inches left over on the last border...that was good because I had bought that fabrics about 4 yrs ago.
