If I had done such a careful job of piecing....I'd want to get that border flat...I'm not as concerned about the little border with the prairie points...it should get enough quilting to make it work and the ppoints are flat.
I'm fascinated with LindaR and grammy Dwynn's posts...
is this Board great, or what? I've learned a couple of ways to come up with flat boarders and square tops...their posts really expanded my horizons. That 1/2 inch less method would surely take into account the usual reduced amount of quilting shrink in the borders that I've seen a few times...ie when the body is more closely quilted and the borders are more openly quilted. I love reading the reasons behind why something will/won't work...it's so much easier to remember what to do if we can think about why we do...or it is for me anyway. Thanks ladies for sharing! And I hope this quilt will make you smile when you're finally done with it, Rachel.
