This is good however. I have the fabric for a panel that has 5 or 6 borders that are mitered, so my learning experience will stand me in good stead.

Thanks for your help.

Years ago I saw a video of making multiple mitered borders where she put all the borders together before attaching any of them to the quilt itself. Might be worth looking for. Good luck!
