Border ideas please?
I'm modifying a pattern so that it's a lap quilt, not bed sized. In doing so, my top and bottom borders will be 7" larger than the side ones. I've done some google image searches to see how this may look and possible treatments. I saw one picture where the borders were simply different sizes, that looked ok. I saw one where a stripe of the inner border fabric was pieced between 2 pieces of the outer border fabric on the top and bottom only, that looked ok too. Last thing I saw was a strip of squares of all the fabrics in the quilt inserted into the top and bottom border, once again it was fine. So I have 3 possible plans. Are there any other suggestions? Pictures maybe?? Thanks!!
