A question about multiple borders
I almost always add multiple borders to my quilt tops. Sometimes I might have as many as four borders. I hate doing the sewing and measuring, I'm always off somehow. I have wondered many times why I can't just sew the border fabrics together in a strip and then handle it as just one piece of fabric. Because so many of my best ideas have flaws in them, I thought I would ask you more experienced quilters why this isn't a good idea. I have never seen it in any of the quilt books I've bought but that doesn't mean it's not OK to do. Please help me out here. Thanks.
