I will sometimes change the size of the quilt by adding a border that stands out on three sides then a solid wide border on those three sides and a narrow solid border on the last side. I have included a pic of my Christmas quilt - but mind you that was not square to start off with - I just wanted to make it a lot wider and a bit longer!! The top (which can not be seen very well) is only a narrow red border.
